Next meeting July 13: Mittens

Our next meeting is Wednesday, July 13, from 3:00 to 4:30 at the Meadows branch of the Boulder Public Library. We will be making Chunky Mittens with a Seed Stitch Insert provided by Diana. You can find the pattern HERE.

You'll need to bring 3 1/2 ounces of bulky weight wool yarn and double point needles in US 9, 10, or 10.5.

If you're more of a novice knitter or you just want a simple project, we can always use more hats. Feel free to dig into the archives to find a hat pattern that suits you.

Remember that Judy from Shuttles will be at the meeting this month with some Encore yarn for sale (it's a favorite for charity projects).

Hope you can make it!

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. You can knit them all, knit just th...
