Charity Scarves













Previously the guild has donated 39 scarves to the South Oakland Shelter. I currently have 75 scarves that the guild has knitted, and again we will be donating all scarves to the SOS. Bringing us to a grand total of 114 scarves that have been donated this year. With the weather changing I along with our guild can only assume that they will be gratefully appreciated. This will be an on going charity throughout the year. Thank you to all the generous knitters and keep knitting!!!

Talked to a man who is into SOS, and he said men grab hats faster then scarfs. So lets knit hats and men type scarfs. The ones in the picture are wonderful. Good for us.

BSKG 1st Guest Post

Posted by Kim Whelan  "copyright Geneve Hoffman Photography" I have this friend; maybe you have one like her? She’s the kind of friend that has all these crazy, great ideas, and somehow, before you know it, you’re smack dab in the middle of something! This friend is the reason that I found myself starting a knitting guild (BSKG) with her a few years ago and found myself president of said guild a few years later. She is also the reason that I started designing patterns. I was just drifting along, calmly knitting away when she said “write a pattern, challenge yourself” That is how I came to write my very first pattern “Etta” which appeared in Lace One Skein Wonders . Now writing a pattern didn’t come easy, there were many mistakes along the way, but I stuck with it and finally I had a pattern I was proud to publish on Ravelry.

March Guild Meeting with Melynda Bernardi

Our guest speaker,  Melynda Bernardi of French Press  Knits, was wonderful! She shared about her background as a knitter, how the name French Press Knits was chosen,  how she started by selling felted slippers and progressed in to writing patterns. Her work is beautiful and she brought several samples to share. Melynda graciously offered a discount on her online patterns for the month of March for our guild members!
