Ribbers

This meeting was in a different format from our usual one, and we were a little nervous about how it would go. But it was a great success, even with a few glitches.

We divided the room up into three sections, each one a mini-meeting round a knitting machine, two Brothers and a Knitmaster.

We demonstrated how to set up the ribber, cast on for 1×1 and 2×2 ribs, and showed some examples of patterning with the ribber. Club members had the opportunity to try it for themselves, and some were brave enough to do so!

The meeting went on well up to the scheduled end, and a little beyond.

And, for those who asked, here is a link to a free [sewn] t-shirt pattern, which I had made and was wearing!
