KTOG - 'Knit TOGether' group for North Hertfordshire.: My version of Cath Kidston's stripey throw

WELCOME

Hello, come along to Baldock every other Thursday.

If you're interested in knitting and/or Crocheting and want to come and meet similar like minded people then come along to KTOG (the Knit TOGether group) that meets fortnightly in North Hertfordshire. {rarely throughout the year you'll notice there is a 3wk gap as opposed to fortnightly - this is due to the room being required for privacy from public ears by the council to discuss local & important issues, however this is only on about 2 occassions each year}

To contact me you can email me atinfo@ktog.co.uk.
There is a small fee to cover the room hire, £3.50 each - but what a room! Its great. We have easy listening background music, Plenty of comfortable seats and both subtle rafter lighting and useful task lighting for darker nights. Get your beverage on the way in from the counter in main entrance to save you going back down the stairs as soon as you arrive, then come up and relax...

Group session is from 7pm until 9pm.
Address: The upstairs meeting room, The community centre, Simpson Drive, Baldock.north herts.
Directions: approx half way down the high street there is the Library and Simpson drive - both almost opposite Zeus greek restaurant. Google MAP
Bring along a project of your own or an array of needle sizes and some yarn and choose one of our MANY FREE PATTERNS to begin something different.
At the group, find out all the discounts available to us for supplies.
Always a selection of up-to-date Knit magazines available for anyone to peruse through.
Friendly group of all ages and levels, whether you can merely cast on 2 stitches or carry out more advanced projects in a flash - you're welcome to come join us, gain some tips and secrets and enjoy the fun and banta.
IF YOU CANNOT KNIT BUT WISH TO TRY, COME ALONG AND WE/I'LL TEACH YOU, NO EXTRA COST OF COURSE, JUST COME AND HAVE A GO. IT'S SO FUN AND EASY, WE ALL HAVE TO START SOMEWHERE.

FINALLY, SCROLL TO THE VERY BOTTOM OF THIS BLOG FOR LISTS OF USEFUL READING AND WEBLINKS FOR FREE PATTERNS ETC...

I fell in love with Cath Kidston's Stripey throw on her website a while ago but didn't want to pay the high price for what is 100% acrylic, so... I'm making my own, inspired by her colour sequence (except a brighter green) and opting for 'half-trebble' crochet stitch. It's now finished & a good size,I've woven in all those ends & am currently 80% through making the bright green scalloped edging like the Cath Kidston one. I'm using Rowan Handknit Cotton & a 6mm hook. I'M LOVING THE BLANKET!!!!
