What
is a knit-along? Knit-alongs are usually held 90 minutes
prior to our normal monthly meeting. A small group
of interested knitters meets for two or three months
to learn a technique or work on a project. Often,
the group may provide each other support via e-mail
or telephone.
Prior
knit-along subjects have been: socks, double-knitting,
modular knitting, Medrith Glover's Circumnavigated
Cardigan, Lucy
Neatby's Radiant Shawl , Elizabeth
Zimmermann's Baby Surprise Sweater, Sunburst
Slingbag by justonemorerow.com, Chris
Bylsma's Crayon Box Jacket and Elizabeth
Zimmermann's Ribwarmer.
