Retreat Reflections
At our April 16, 2026 meeting the attendees from our recent KANG Retreat at Camp Lonestar will discuss their experiences. The attendees will also have a show and tell of the classes they participated in and some of their finished projects from the classes.
A special Executive Board meeting will be held to further discuss tabled topics from the Q2 meeting via zoom.
At our November meeting Gloria Chukman will be presenting a program titled, “Pack it or Hack it“.
We’ll talk about what to pack, fiber-wise, for knitting when traveling, and some hacks for tools, whenever or wherever you don’t have them handy and just *have to* to knit. With the holidays quickly approaching, this a subject that many of think about even before we pack our suitcases!
August’s program will be all about ideas! Bring your knitting/crocheting and any/all ideas for possible programs for the year. Let’s make this new year a fun and creative one! Many members often come early to enjoy a BBQ dinner at the restaurant, and show appreciation for their generosity in allowing us to meet there. All KANG members and visitors are welcome!
New president means new plans! Join us this month to discuss what you would like to do this year at the KNIT chapter – guests welcome!
Yarn and patterns for Knitted Knockers are still available for those wanting to participate in our most recent charity project.
SoCK: Planning, Sit-and-Knit, and Finished Projects
The program combines a sit-and-knit session with planning for next year’s programs. We’ll ask volunteers to claim a particular month. We don’t need you to know your exact program, just volunteer for a time slot. We’ll do the same thing for Door Prize volunteers. After that, we’ll show off finished projects and have a relaxing time sitting and knitting (or crocheting). Please join us!
Do you know any good knitting and crocheting hacks? We are going to be sharing and discussing tips and tricks to make your knitting/crocheting life easier. No tip or trick is too small or insignificant! You never know who will have an “aha!” moment when they hear your hack. Come prepared to share!
Many of our members often come early to dine at the restaurant and show appreciation for their generosity in allowing us to meet there. All KANG members and visitors are welcome!
This month we will focus on how to read charts. If you have specific questions, please bring them!
Pesky Problems Program

This year’s SoCK programs are designed to elevate your skills. For the September meeting, we’ll kick off our yearly challenge. The theme is “Making those UFOs become FOs.” For the challenge kickoff, there will be a prize for the person who brings the most UFOs (or photo evidence of them) to the meeting. At the end of the year, there will be prizes for the most completed UFOs.
You also can challenge yourself to dig into new skills you want to learn! Upcoming programs are on short rows, socks, backward knitting and knitting styles, Portuguese knitting, crochet skills, Knit Companion Part 2, yarn dyeing with Koolaid, and Granny Square crochet! Challenge yourself to grow your skills!
