Knitting in the Daytime (KIND)

At our June meeting we are planning to get ahead of our 26-27 program schedule. We encourage members to attend and give their input of programs they would like to have provided during our next chapter year.

Knitters Night in Town (KNIT)

Come prepared to talk about your very favorite thing you have ever knit or crocheted. Bring the item if possible, or a photo!

Our programming for the meeting will be a casual craft & chat. Non-yarn crafts are welcome! Bring whatever it is you are working on, or any projects you could use some help with.

Knit and Crochet Pain-free

Improve the strength and flexibility of your hands and arms, so both your body and your mind can enjoy knitting and crocheting. This interactive presentation will show you exercises to help you stitch without pain.

Knitters Night in Town (KNIT)

This month we’ll learn a little bit about Intarsia and complete a swatch.

If you wish to participate, please bring two contrasting colors of yarn (worsted or heavy worsted recommended) and appropriate needles. You’ll need 12-15 yards of your main color and 4-5 yards of the contrast color.

If you have bobbins, feel free to bring them – you’ll need 3. You can also make your own bobbins from cereal boxes, use a clothespin, or wind yarn into a butterfly (all of which we’ll cover in the program).

Blocking Makes It Better!

Join us for a discussion on blocking your knitted and crocheted items. We’ll talk about why to block your items and explore the methods and tools to achieve the results you want. Plus, there will be examples of blocked and unblocked items. Bring your questions and blocking tips to share!

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.

Knitting with Wire

Kathy Wells will show us how creativity abounds as we make a necklace using knitted wire shapes, beads, and various cords or ribbons.

Bring your own needles (sizes 5-6), double-points, or an E-F crochet hook. Wood/bamboo is less slippery. Don’t use your good needles; wire is rough on them!
Bring 2-3 stitch holders and jewelry pliers, if you have them.

For those who RSVP, wire, jewelry findings, cords, and a selection of beads will be supplied. If you bring beads, they should be M-L and have holes big enough for fingering-weight yarn to pass through.

Junk In Yer Trunk

Please join us for a crafty swap meet! Bring any craft supplies (yes, we mean ANY) you’d like to give away to a good home, and shop other stashes for some new-to-you goodies. After the swap, we’ll head inside for a sit & stitch. All guild members are welcome, as are any guests who would like to participate in the swap.

Please RSVP by Tuesday, April 7 if you would like to attend – email knitatnightguildKNIT@gmail.com and let us know how many people & vehicles you will be bringing with you. We need a count so we can reserve enough space.

Allowed: yarn, notions, tools, books, patterns, magazines, beads & jewelry supplies, fabric & sewing supplies, trims, buttons, paints, drawing supplies, sketchbooks, scrapbook paper, stamps, ink, leather & woodcraft supplies, looms, spinning wheels, easels, sewing machines, craft-related furniture, finished handmade items, anything else you can defend as “craft-adjacent”.

Not allowed: non-handmade clothes & accessories, shoes, personal care, or household items.

Additional details will be sent ONLY to those who RSVP, so please start cleaning out those craft rooms and let us know you’d like to come!
