April bears!


Bears by Roxana

It's bear time! Our next meeting will be Wednesday, April 13 from 3:00 to 4:30 at the Meadows branch of the Boulder Public library. We will be working on Roxana's bear pattern, which you can find HERE. We will also have printed copies available. You will need to bring worsted weight yarn and US 5 or 6 (3.75 or 4 mm) double pointed needles. You can use neutral colors (white, brown, gray, etc.) for a more realistic bear, or mix it up with a fun color. 

If this pattern feels beyond your skill set, there will be help available at the meeting, or you are always welcome to make a hat - we can never have too many of those! My go-to recommendation for a free worsted-weight hat pattern is the Barley hat from Tin Can Knits.

 Hope to see you there!

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!

  Hi all,  Our next meeting will be Wednesday, September 14 from 3:00 to 4:30 at the Boulder Public Library Meadows branch. We are making adult-size hats. You can choose from any of your favorite patterns, or you can try this ribbed one ( PATTERN HERE ), which is very stretchy to fit almost everyone.

Everyone (even if you already subscribed) please go HERE to sign up, or you can email me at amysantamaria@gmail.com and I'll sign you up. If you know someone who hasn't been getting email notifications, please forward this on to them. I'll also collect emails at the next meeting for anyone who is having trouble.
