2.   Knit 20 rows.  There should be 10 garter ridges.

Mar 4

Program: Hook, Line, & Sinker - market bags galore, both knit and crochet

This month, your camp counselors will be teaching you how to fish! Or, actually, discussing how you can carry your “catch” home from the market, yarn shop, bookstore, etc. Reusable totes are a great way to burn up some cotton, acrylic or linen stash.  Or use up some  leftovers from other projects. You don’t want to use stretchy yarns for this - the open nature of the stitches used in most totes makes them quite stretchy! The exception is if you want to felt a tote - then use non superwash wool. 

Materials to bring:  totes you have completed along with the yarn and pattern info to share.  Bring the yarn, needles, and pattern to start a tote during the meeting!

How to prepare: There is no prep.

Apr 1

Program: Flower Power - all about 3D granny squares (crochet heavy)
