September 2026 Show and Share

The September Show and Share was full of color and laughter. Your next chance to show in person is October 2026. Save time and download a Show and Share form in advance. If you can’t attend the October meeting, or have an item you’d like to show off now, you may submit photos and project details via email to the Webmaster. As always, instructions for submitting your photos for posting are at the bottom of this page. A complete list and links to past Guild Photo Galleries can be found on the drop-down menu under the Guild Info tab.

Photo Gallery From The September 2026 Guild Meeting

Shelly Gragg showed the Leaflette Scarf from Justyna Lorkowska in Lux Sheep Lux.
This lovely yarn is a superwash blend of merino, silk, and cashmere.
Shelly made the scarf for her mom.
Theresa Kotanchek's Focus is an oversized mesh tee from Karen Damskey, the owner of L'Atelier. Theresa says it's a "super easy" knit on #7 needles, holding the yarns double and triple.
Flora Paillettes is cotton with tiny sequins, while Wow is nylon and metallic. Together they create distinct bands of shimmer for "a fun summer tee."
Sue Tavaglione modeled her New Leaf smocked top from FibraNatura's design team. The organic cotton yarn is gathered in regularly spaced tucks to create the front shaping.
Sue explains she "got a good lesson" in binding off the deep scooped neckline -- ensuring it didn't scoop too much!
Donna Mulcahy's Flax Worsted is a striped tee from Tin Can Knits. She used Purl Soho June, a cotton/linen blend.
Carol Myers shows her Rambler scarf from our own Dana Fehrenbach, made in Pascuali Cashmere Lace.
Carol says, "At last January's retreat, I fell in love with the sample Dana shared. Easy pattern, luscious yarn!"
Sandy Yayanos shares Who Ya Gonna Shawl from Mary Annarella of Lyrical Knits. Sandy loves Annarell's creative construction methods. She chose stash yarns (yay!) including Malabrigo, Venezia, and some mysteries in "mostly merino, some nylon, some silk."
Sandy explains that she's made this shawl before, so thought it would be a good "recovering from hip replacement" project. Unfortunately, her "brain was a little mushy" and there was a fair amount of frogging involved!

How to Submit 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.
