El Segundo Slipt Stitchers

Contributed by our Vice President – Gillian B.

Thank you to everyone who stayed at our January meeting to brainstorm and vote on topics for our 2026 programs.  We had a very well attended meeting, and lots of great suggestions.  We also had several new volunteers offering to teach topics, which is wonderful news!  An extra big thank you to everybody who volunteered to teach a topic, and to Joan for her help with the projector too.

There is more information from Gillian on the January meeting, the schedule and future considerations on the News and Events page (click here to go to the message from Gillian if you haven't had a chance to read it yet)

February Program:

(the handout was sent out with the newsletter, you need to print your own copy for the meeting!).  The handout can also be found by clicking here.

At the February meeting, Cathy M. will give us a demonstration of circular knitting machines.  The program is described more fully in the handout (which you can find here).  This is going to be very hands on and with luck we are all going to have a chance to use a machine.  If we have enough supplies, we’ll be making beanie style hats to give to a local charity.

Please also note that if you want a hard copy of the handout, you’ll have to print your own and bring it to the meeting. If you don't have the handout that was sent out with the newsletter, you can find it here.  We won’t have paper copies to distribute.  We’re going to be transitioning to this method of doing things as much as possible – it’s better for the environment and for our budget 😊 

Remember you can bring up the handout on your electronic device during the meeting if you don't think you'll need a printed handout during the meeting.  Remember the handout will always be available on the website (click here or below in the schedule to go to it).
