Stranded knitting is all the rage, especially for sweater yokes!
Take your stranding to the next level with the help of Amy Rodgers, KIND’s guest speaker. Amy will cover tips and tricks to make your work easier and to get your colorwork creations to stand out in a good way!
For the meeting, please bring two colors of smooth wool yarn and appropriate needles – double points or circular needles so you can practice these techniques on a small swatch in the round.
The chapter will begin a knit-along with the Simply Scrappy Cowl (https://www.ravelry.
The pattern is suitable for knitters of all levels and is available for free on Ravelry for a “limited time“– no expiration date is provided.
If you plan to participate in the KAL, download or add the pattern to your Ravelry Library ASAP. Bring your leftover yarn to the meeting and we can help each other choose the yarns and order of use for our cowls. It appears to be a quick project – you may have a pretty new cowl to wear for our first cold front.
Crocheters – bring a scrappy project you have in your queue and join the fun!!
Also, bring your Show and Share!!
The Zoom link will be included in the email to chapter members. If you are not a KNIT member, but would like to join via Zoom – contact Karen at knitatnightguildknit@gmail.
Amigurumi with Annette:
Come join SoCK in November for cuteness overload! Amigurumi is the Japanese art of crocheting or knitting small, stuffed yarn creatures.
Annette will teach us crocheted Magic Circle, which is the foundation for making all kinds of little figures. For the program we’ll make a cute little Santa hat, perfect for small gifts and stocking-stuffers. To participate, bring leftover worsted or DK yarn and the appropriate size crochet hook.
DATE CHANGE: We’re meeting a week early this month!!
Please join us for a program on felting.
Amy will share what she learned while converting a well-loved handknit sweater into a lined autumn felted tote/purse. If you have made felted purses in the past, please bring them.
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.
We’re looking forward to seeing you on October 24th!
Join our October program as we begin a knit-along with Laura Nelkin’s Starry Light or Love and Light (both available on Ravelry).
They are created by knitting with LED fairy lights. The star and small version of the heart require a 66 foot (200 light) strand. The large heart requires a 99 foot (300 light) strand. They are available on Amazon and Ebay and possibly a local craft store.
Also, bring your Show and Share!!
Sunita will be teaching us to make beaded stitch markers. She will provide the materials.
If you have any small jeweler’s pliers, please bring them.

We hope you can stay after the meeting for lunch. Please let me know if you can attend at joshanmom@aol.com because the restaurant needs a head count.
