Great to see you! Meeting again in October

Mistake stitch hat (pattern linked below)

Thanks to everyone who showed up/dropped off knitted items at the outdoor September meeting. It was great to finally see people and catch up. We had a great turnout and collected a lot of finished items to donate to people in need this fall and winter. We anticipate that the need will be greater this year so it's great that we're able to give so much. 

You can click on the links below to get the  patterns we gave out at the meeting.

We had such a good time that we're going to try to meet again October 14, from 3-5 PM. We'll meet at  Harlow Platts park by Viele Lake in South Boulder, weather permitting. Plan to distance/wear masks as necessary.  If you are looking for things to knit, we are short of vests and mittens, and hats are always welcome. People can also buy some long-sleeve t-shirts in size 3T-4T to go with the vests, and we are also collecting cash donations to buy books for our holiday giveaway. You can also bring refugee sweaters in October.

    Hi all, sorry I missed the September meeting, but I'll be at the October one. Besides the usual hats, etc., I have a box of books that my daughter and I culled from her childhood collection. I'd rather these went to our Worthy Cause instead of Sister Carmen or Bookworm, but I don't know what happened to the books we supplied in the past. Would there be someone present tomorrow to look at them and advise?
    Thanks,
    Lynn Reed

      We'll be meeting Wednesday (not tomorrow) - just about to post the reminder. And yes, someone there should be able to let you know. Thank you for your generosity!

Reminder: meeting Wednesday at 4:00

Just a reminder that we will be meeting this Wednesday, August 18, 4:00 at Harlow Platts park by Viele Lake. The pattern is a modified version of the Swirl Hat, a favorite from Hat Bingo . I think it uses about 2 ounces of worsted weight yarn, preferable something machine washable, and a US 7 or 8 16 inch circular needle. Hope to see you there!

Reminder: Meeting at Harlow Platts Park Wednesday 4-6

Just a reminder: we will be meeting IN PERSON at Harlow Platts Park (by Viele Lake in South Boulder) from 4-6 on Wednesday. We'll have a spot to drop off finished projects and pick up the new pattern (you'll need to provide your own yarn). Remember we'll also be collecting sweaters for the refugee project. If you'd like to stay and knit, please bring a chair or blanket. We'll sit in small groups rather than in one large one. Hope to see you there!

April cables (or not)

Our next meeting will be this Wednesday, April 12, from 3:00 to 4:30 at the Meadows branch of the Boulder Public Library. Our project is a child's hat that you can make with or without cables. You'll need about 2 ounces of worsted weight yarn, US size 7 or 8 (4.5-5mm) 16 inch circular and double point needles, a cable needle if you are working the cable version, and 8 stitch markers, one unique for the beginning of the round. You can find the pattern HERE . Hope you can make it!
