Katy Lace Knitters will meet on Tuesday, August 6th, at 11 am at Luby’s on South Mason Road.
We will be discussing the Good Winds Shawl and how to increase or decrease it. Bring any pattern you want to alter, and we will be glad to help.
Stay after the meeting to visit and eat lunch. Please email me at joshanmom@aol.com if you plan to attend. Hope to see y’all there.
Join us for a program on the Basics of Tunisian Crochet. Tracy Reid will be showing us how to do this fun craft.
No homework is necessary, but those who would like to try making a small swatch can bring some light-colored worsted or DK weight yarn and a straight, non-ergonomic crochet hook that is 2 to 3 sizes larger than what is recommended for the yarn.
A Tunisian crochet hook is not necessary for a small sample, but if you already have one feel free to bring it. An instructional handout will be provided for those who want to try practicing on their own. Tracy will bring finished projects, swatches, tools and a couple books to share as well.
She will be using this free pattern for the demo and swatch.
Many members often come early to have dinner and show support for the restaurant and their generosity in letting us meet there. Guild members and visitors are welcome to join us!
NEW Location!
Come sit and knit (or crochet) with us!

We will also discuss our most unusual tool and what tool was a miss (thought it was a great idea but…).
Since our July meeting was canceled — we opted for a redo!
And it is still hot enough to:
THINK COOL!
Join us as we think about making new and fun holiday gifts and decorations.
Bring along knitted or crocheted items or photos to show off your favorites and warn us off the “this was too much aggravation” projects!
We are excited to see what everyone has to offer!!
Of course we love to see any WIPs or help out with any problem knitting if we can.
Don’t forget to bring your charity items.
August’s meeting is the program we had planned in July that was interrupted by Hurricane Beryl.
It is a combination of a sit & knit and planning our next year’s programs.
We’ll ask volunteers to claim a particular month.
We don’t need you to know exactly what your program will be, just volunteer for a time slot.
We’ll do the same thing for Door Prize volunteers.
After that, we’ll show and share finished projects and have a relaxing time just sitting and knitting (or crocheting). Please come be part of this!
