KNOW Meeting – Upcycling

The February meeting of KNOW will feature a program on Upcycling by Nancy.
Join us as we discuss what is upcycling, the impact of the textile industry on the environment, and things we can do as fiber artists/enthusiasts to change our impact. Let’s not be part of the problem, but part of the solution!
Members are also invited to show and share any of your completed projects.
Members often arrive early to visit over dinner and show their support to the restaurant for their generosity in allowing us to meet there. Visitors and members from other chapters are always welcome.

KIND Meeting – Knitting in the Round

The KIND group will look at the various methods of knitting in the round for small-diameter projects like socks, mittens, and cosy koozies.

All are encouraged to bring fingering-weight yarn and appropriate needles, and we’ll collectively demo and share what we like about using our tools, whether it be circulars (short, extra-long for magic loop, or in pairs), cool new flexi-flips, or good old double-pointed straights.
