Join us as Karen Fern leads the group in a gnome make-along and shares her tips and tricks.
More info regarding patterns, materials, and any necessary homework will be sent to closer to the meeting, so please email knitatnightguildKNIT@gmail.com if you are interested in participating and have a home chapter other than ours!
We’ll be making crochet snowflake ornaments! Join us!
At our November meeting Gloria Chukman will be presenting a program titled, “Pack it or Hack it“.
We’ll talk about what to pack, fiber-wise, for knitting when traveling, and some hacks for tools, whenever or wherever you don’t have them handy and just *have to* to knit. With the holidays quickly approaching, this a subject that many of think about even before we pack our suitcases!
We will be starting a knit along project (KAL), with everyone showing their finished product at our January meeting. Project will be determined by a majority vote, and it will be small enough that it can be easily finished in 1-2 months.
Many of our members often come early to dine at the restaurant and show appreciation for their generosity in allowing us to meet there. All KANG members and visitors are welcome!
This month we’ll be knitting or crocheting pumpkins! Start searching your stash for those pumpkin-colored yarns and join us!
This month we’ll be making counting chains. This nifty little tool moves just like a stitch marker so you can keep knitting (or crocheting) uninterrupted. No more putting your project down to click a counter or tap an app on your phone!
To participate, please bring:
Small jewelry pliers (needle, round, or bent nose) – two pairs if you have them!
Any beads or charms you would like to use (or share).
We will provide the metal hardware and numbers.
Don’t want to make one? No problem! You are still welcome to join us and work on your own project.
Guests and members of other chapters are always welcome!
Back by popular demand! Join us as we explore making a basket from stash yarn. We will be crocheting multiple strands and your choice of weight of yarns using a N or P hook.
The pattern is available on Ravelry: Big Beautiful Basket
If you want a preview, there is also a YouTube video.
To complete a basket, you will need 300 yards of three worsted-weight yarns, one P or N crochet hook, and at least two removable stitch markers.
Our September meeting will take place at the Jim and Joann Fonteno Senior Education Building at 6600 Bissonnet St., please note that is a permanent change in meeting location.
Our program this month will be knitting stacked increases and decreases. Hazel Kjos will be presenting this program and has asked that members bring a skein of yarn of their choosing and circular needles with a long cable.
Amy Campbell will be presenting a program on mosaic knitting. If you would like to try it yourself, please bring two contrasting colors of yarn in the same weight and appropriate needles for your yarn. A pattern for a sample square will be provided!
Guests and members of other chapters are always welcome!
NOTE DATE CHANGE – 1 week later than usual
This month will be the first installment of Connie’s class on cast-ons and bind-offs.
