No Jogging

Hey knitters!  Our upcoming April program is how to knit a jogless striped hat.  Learn how to have your colors join without that annoying jog.  I know this is a bit late but you have time before next Thursday's Zoom meeting to get ready.

All you have to do it find or dig out your favorite plain old hat pattern.  I found a few (dozen) free ones on Ravelry and just picked this one or maybe this one, but there are lots of them.  Grab a couple colors of yarn, plain colors will work best for this first effort, cast on and knit the ribbing and then a bit of hat body so you're ready to knit the first stripe on Thursday night.  I plan to knit the smallest size.

Glenyss from the Grafton Yarn Store will be there to teach us and she's excellent at explaining things.

So gather up your supplies, do a little homework, and come learn how to make jogless stripes with us on Thursday, April 15.  I look forward to seeing you!
