PHOTO GALLERY FROM THE NOVEMBER 2025 GUILD MEETING (HELD OCTOBER 28)

Brubaker Sanson Olga — Laura Brubaker made Olga’s SANSAN shawl using two yarns. The main color is a Verb sock yarn blank that she dyed in a Guild class; contrast is Expression Fiber Arts’ Luster Superwash. Laura notes this pattern is “Fun to make!”

Wagner T Shape Miter Tee — Melody Wagner designed her own T-shirt using mitered T-shapes in 4 or 5 colorways of Noro Cotton Kureyon.

Irina Anikeeva Dorabella Anikeeva — Irina Anikeeva designed this Dorabella pullover and made it in Miss Babs Caroline, a merino/cashmere blend. The sweater is worked seamlessly from the top down, with a lace yoke and sleeves that taper to a fitted cuff.

Tavaglione Foolproof 1 Zass Bangham — Sue Tavaglione showed two versions of the Foolproof cowl from Louise Zass-Bangham. Somehow, this pattern has no cast-on, no bindoff, no knitting in the round, no sewing or grafting, and no picking up stitches!

Tavaglione Foolproof 2 Zass Bangham — Sue used a solid color yarn and followed the pattrn for her first version. As the second cowl includes a variegated yarn, she changed the all-garter pattern into a combination of garter and stockinette. She notes it is “So fun to knit!”

Sharon Hunt The Paris Skirt Me And Simone — Sharon Hunt shines in The Paris Skirt from Me and Simone, worked in just 250 grams of various silk/mohair yarns.

Suzanne Meader Green Sweater — Suzanne Meader designed her own sweater to take full advantage of the wide range of green wool yarns she had stashed.

Theresa Kotanchek Maybel Hanna Maciejewska — Theresa Kotanchek’s Maybel vest from Hanna Maciejewska calls for a linen blend worked on #4 needles; Theresa chose Woolfolk’s chainette FAR wool while shopping at Flock Fiber Festival 2025. After consulting Hanna and Woolfolk, she used #7 needles.

Sylvia King Floriculture Dawn Barker — Sylvia King has made Dawn Barker’s Floriculture with the original assigned pooling, but for this version chose 2 yarns from Fashion School Drop Out: a variegated Suri alpaca and coordinating solid fingering, held separately. Like Theresa, she found these yarns at Flock Fiber 2025.

virtual show and share submissions

Tania Marshall submitted a virtual Show and Share this month. [Ed: I have to admit, when I saw this yarn and pattern become available, four sets fell into my cart — I have two sisters and a niece to knit for!]

Tania Marshall Blingola Nelkin 1 — The Blingola Scarf by Laura Nelkin was initially available only through Lola’s Choice Club. Happily, it is now available to the public!

Tania Marshall Blingola Nelkin 2 — The yarns are Puno Winikunka, a cotton and alpaca blend, and a sequin yarn with a private Lola label, “Blingola.” These yarns are available in a wide range of colors; Tania chose Navy.

How to Submit Your Photos: Photos can be submitted via email attachments to the Webmaster. For clarity, image file sizes should be greater than 500 kb. Keep in mind when you take your photos that projects show up best against solid contrasting backgrounds. Include in your email a description of your project, pattern and designer name, yarn used, how you came to knit your project, and any other information you wish viewers to know. Be sure to include your name in your email! Tip — no need to complete a Show and Share form for virtual postings — just put your project information in the body of your email.

* Did you know? If you have the option, take your photos with your phone. Smart phones have much better cameras than iPads or tablets and are as good if not better than many digital cameras! You can email photos directly from your phone, no need to download first — just include your project information in the body of your email.

There is no set deadline for submissions; photos are posted according to the month they are received. Projects received by the 4th Monday of the month will appear in the next month’s News Blast.
