Hilde's Corner - Happy Fourth of July!

Happy Fourth of July! Happy Semiquincentennial! I thought it would be fun to look up some patriotic patterns for this special Fourth of July, but who wants to wear a sweater or a hat and mittens on what is typically a rather hot day? I have found a few small items, however, which also works since the holiday is in just a few days and we’d need something that can be whipped up quickly. These first two patterns are both made with fingering weight yarn. I would suggest Cascade Heritage for them. Up first is Americana Wrist Cuff by Cirilia Rose and is free on Ravelry! Though it uses fingering weight yarn, I bet it could be easily adapted for other weight yarns, as well. Here’s a clever headband Stars & Stripes Headband by Ash Christine that is $7 on Ravelry. What a fun way to add some red, white, and blue to an outfit! These next three patterns are all made up in Worsted weight yarns. I would say Uptown Worsted in acrylic, or Cotton Supreme in cotton would work well for any of them. T...

KNIT Sweater-a-long Flax

The Details... Saturday, October 24th 2pm to 4pm MANDATORY Saturday, October 31st 2pm to 4pm Saturday, November 21st 2pm to 4pm Saturday December 5th 2pm to 4pm This 4 session get-together is structured to help you along and answer any questions as they come up, but it is not a class in the sense that everyone is doing the exact same thing at the same time with lecture/presentations. It's a fun social atmosphere, with the first meeting discussing the fit of the sweater. You will need a knit swatch before the first meeting (more information below) The first meeting is MANDATORY, as we will discuss fit and gauge and hand out printed patterns and email digital patterns. After that all meetings are up to you and there are no make-up sessions available. Remember, this is more social/accountability than it is instructional! Pre-req: Must know how to knit in the round, purl, increase, decrease, cast on and bind off. So you need to know how much yarn to purchase.... Sizes: 0-6 mo (6-12 mo,...
