You're going to love this week's Show and Tell: Oops, I did it again... and again... and maybe another do-over. Bring an item that you've made a mistake on and let the group know what you learned. We can all learn from our mistakes (and from each others' mistakes).
This week's topic in the Beginner/Intermediate group is on Increasing and Decreasing. Please bring worsted weight yarn and 4 1/2mm needles. We will start our first blanket square with a traditional dishcloth style pattern.
The Intermediate/Advanced group will discuss Pattern Shaping/Full Fashion Shaping.
Congratulations to Myriam on making the first comment post on the website - she will get a little treat at our next meeting. Be sure to check each week for the recap of the meeting. Also, we've started three new posts on knitting blogs, patterns and instructional sites. Be sure to post your favorite sites for the group to take a look at. We have created three post titles so you can easily search the site:
Announcing: These are posts about upcoming meeting topics or news
Wrap-up: These are posts summarizing that week's meeting
Discussion: These are topics for everyone to add their insights on.
As always, we welcome your feedback and hope you've had a great week.
Community Blanket Project:
Remember, with the rainy weather, it is a great time to get started on your blanket squares. As an added incentive, the first person to bring in a completed square will receive a handmade piece of pottery. If there is a tie, we'll draw names...
Hope to see you Sunday. And remember to bring your mistake for Show and Tell!
Yarn over and out,
JAS

If looking for inexpensive knitting needles , check out Yokoyaya123 International Village Mall (Tinseltown) 88 West Pender St. Colourful two toned plastic needles and bamboo double-pointed sets are priced at a great price of $2 a pkg. Oh! and by the way, they are made in Japan.
ReplyDeleteHi there,
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry I missed last Sunday gathering; that was the lesson I was looking forward to learn because I have never done any increasing or decreasing, all my things are flat and square haha anyways I have been so sick since last Friday and playing it safe I think I won't leave home until the weekend. The worst thing is that when my body aches and I can't move I have not been in the mood of knitting so the projects stoped until I get better.
I will see you on Sunday and thank you Lesia for letting us know where the store with nice needles is, I bought myself a pair of cable bamboo ones in Walmart too for 3.50
:)
Cheers
Myriam
