WELCOME TO INTERKNIT MACHINE KNITTING GUILD
Interknit Machine Knitting Club was originally founded as an “in-person” Club in the suburbs of Chicago in the fall of 1995 for the support, education, and fellowship of machine knitters of all experience and expertise levels, regardless of the make or model of machine used. We now meet via Zoom and boast members throughout the U.S., Canada, England and Australia!
Interknit is not affiliated with any knit shop. It is self-supporting. Members include beginners, hobby knitters, designers, authors, teachers, and interested knitters from across the United States as well as a couple of foreign countries. Our club year begins in January with annual dues in the amount of $25 payable by December 31st of each year. New/returning members may join at any time during the year. Regular meetings are held via Zoom on the second Saturday of each month from 10:00 a.m. – Noon, Central Time Zone. A typical meeting includes a brief business meeting, an enthusiastic show and tell and a program provided by one of Interknit’s own demonstrators or a guest instructor. We also have two or three hour workshops/seminars with guest demonstrators each year, and we provide knitted items for local charities and organizations such as Wool-Aid.
DECEMBER 2026 MEETING
ANITA CORNELL
Sweater Sizing & How To Make A Brooch
We are ending the year on December 12th with renowned knitter, Anita Cornell who will demonstrate how to draft your own sweater pattern based on a sample garment. Perhaps you have a sweater that you wish to duplicate while tweaking the fit and/or styling. She will walk you through the steps of drafting the pattern for the yarn of your choice while taking into consideration measurement changes and converting a traditional drop shoulder into a modified drop shoulder. She will also demonstrate how to turn simple craft metal into a lovely brooch to wear with your lightweight knits. This is going to be exciting and will give you some great ideas for your holiday gifts! We look forward to seeing you there!
