KIND will begin a series of programs on colorwork.
For January, we will focus on mosaic knitting. Mosaic is one of the easiest ways to do complex colorwork patterns but uses only one color at a time. Come join us at the meeting to learn about mosaic knitting and try out one of these patterns.
To participate, you’ll need two colors of the same yarn, a light and a dark (take a photo and use your phone to convert it monochrome/black-and-white to ensure good contrast!). For needles, you can use circular or straight needles, but select ones 1-2 sizes larger than you would normally use for that yarn.
PLEASE NOTE THE NEW MEETING TIME!!!
Come join KNIT for a Program on: Knitting tips
Patty Lyons’ new book, Knitting Bag of Tricks, will be shared including jogless stripes, joining in the round, bind off in pattern, count your cast on, ending the round smoothly, ditching the knot, and dropping a cast on stitch.
Members are encouraged to share their favorite tips also!
We will also have a show and share of current and/or completed projects!
