SoCK Meeting – Projects & Programs

Join us on Zoom or in-person as we finish up past projects for September’s meeting!

Bring your donate items and also bring something for Show and Share. We will continue the discussion on Programs for this year!

KIK Zoom Meeting – Knitwear from the movies

As fiber artists, you most likely have noticed knitted or crocheted garments while watching movies, but have you ever thought about trying to recreate one of those garments? KIK member Connie Blakley, a fan of period movies and an avid knitter, recently decided it would be fun to do some research about knitwear seen in movies. She will discuss her findings and show some patterns that closely resemble those garments. Members are encouraged to share their own discoveries of movie knitwear.
Please send an email to KIK President (knitatnightguildkik@gmail.com) if you are not a chapter member and wish to attend.

SoCK Meeting – Baby donations

Please join SOCK as we knit baby items to donate. The votes are in Ravelry: Little Babbity – Preemie Baby Cardigan Jacket pattern by marianna mel and Ravelry: Little Jay – Premature Baby Cardigans pattern by marianna mel. Both patterns are knit with DK weight yarn and size US6 knitting needles. We will be finishing up our shawls and any past projects. Make sure you bring items for show and share.
We will be meeting at the Weekley Community Center and Zoom, so please mark your calendar to be present.

KIK Zoom Meeting – Chinese Waitress cast on/bind off

Program will be presented by Connie Blakley
The KIK program for June will be a demonstration of the Chinese Waitress cast on and bind off stitches. This technique produces a lovely edge that looks the same on the right side and wrong side of your fabric and also looks the same on the cast-on and bind-off edges. It is an excellent choice for exposed edges on garments such as shawls and scarves. If you wish to knit along during the meeting, bring some yarn, knitting needles appropriately sized for your yarn choice, and a crochet hook.
Please send an email to KIK President (knitatnightguildkik@gmail.com) if you are not a chapter member and wish to attend.

CHIX Zoom Meeting – Future of chapter

Calling all Chix members. We must discuss the future of the CHIX chapter. Hope to see you at the next meeting. Let’s see what’s on the needles and off. Let’s show and share.

KNIT Zoom Meeting – Color Theory

Join us Tuesday June 8 at 6:30 via Zoom for a presentation and play about Color Theory with Kyla Crawford from Kyla’s Lab yarns. Kyla will guide us through theories on color as well as through some exercises and play with color. So unleash your mind. And bring a box of crayons – or colored pencils – something you can use to color inside and outside the lines.
We’ll send out a Zoom invitation for the June meeting.
And keep watching your mailbox — we plan to be back in person later this summer. Details to come.

KNOW Zoom Meeting – Yarn dyeing

Knitter’s Night Out West meets from 7:00 pm – 8:30pm on the last Monday of each month (EXCEPT IN MAY and December). While we normally meet at Spring Creek Barbeque, 21000 Katy Freeway, I-10 at Westgreen Blvd in Katy, currently we are holding Zoom meetings.
Chapter members, please watch your email for a poll regarding when we should resume in-person meetings. May 24th is a Zoom meeting so watch for your invitation around May 20.
Members from other chapters wishing to attend our meeting are always welcome to do so. Please email KNOW prior to May 21st to be sure to receive a Zoom invitation.
KNOW members will head to the kitchen and do some yarn dyeing in the microwave with Kool Aid!  Dyeing with food dyes is an easy, fun, and safe way to become an indie dyer for a day.  You can use any white or light-colored yarn that is animal fiber (wool, mohair, etc., no cottons or acrylics.) Check your stash for leftovers or unloved hanks and give them a makeover with this fun technique.  We will send out a full list of materials ahead of our meeting, so if you are not a KNOW chapter member be sure to send an email to KNOW for the information and Zoom invite as soon as possible.
