June meeting next week: A scarf with pockets

Hi knitters! I hope you are all having a good start to your summer. We are having our next meeting Wednesday, June 8, from 3:00 to 4:30 at the Meadows branch of the Boulder Public Library. We will be making a scarf with pockets. You need to bring:

Machine washable worsted weight yarn:

3 ounces for the scarf

1 ounce for the pockets

US 9 (5.5 mm) needles

You can get the pattern HERE or I think we will have printed copies available at the meeting.

Judy from Shuttles will be at the meeting and will have some Encore yarn available for purchase. Encore is an acrylic-wool blend that is a great machine washable option for charity knits. (EDIT: THIS IS FOR THE JULY MEETING.)

I'd also like to announce a fun challenge for the year: 24 in '24! A while back, we worked on a project to make blankets for the local police to distribute to comfort people (especially children) involved in difficult and traumatic situations. A great group of people kept this going, and the Lafayette police are still receiving blankets to distribute. They said they can always use more blankets, so let's make that happen. The challenge is this: knit 24 squares in 2024. Each month, I'll share two stitch patterns, ranging from very simple and to more challenging. The patterns are just to keep you interested.
