WELCOME TO INTERKNIT MACHINE KNITTING GUILD
Interknit Machine Knitting Club was founded 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.
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.
MEMBER SPOTLIGHT
JEAN POWELL
At 84 years young Jean keeps herself busy all year long knitting children’s sweaters, hats, scarves and she also sews! Born and raised in Guyana, Jean and her husband eventually moved to Trinidad and ran a successful paper business before settling via Canada to the United States. Every year Jean sponsors a Holiday Open House at her home where she displays and sells all of the items she has knit throughout the year. She also knits and donates to the very worthwhile Hephzibah Children’s Association. Many of her pieces are knit with the Garter Carriage and embellished with adorable applique designs and duplicate stitch. Jean can be found expounding the virtues of machine knitting every month at the Hillside LK150 Club and at our Zoom meetings!
