Virtual Trunk Show
This month we're featuring Kim's yarn company, Indigodragonfly! The trunk show will start at 6:30 pm so be sure to sign in early! (Regular meeting programming will start at 7:00pm)
Meeting Logistics:
This meeting will be virtual via Zoom and you will need to pre-register:
https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZArcuytrjIpEtDW_rKp4caFU1zjrNPGi9EI
You should receive an email from Zoom immediately with your access link as well as a reminder email from Zoom the day of the meeting.
You can use either a smartphone, tablet, laptop computer, or desktop computer to join the meeting.
A couple of Zoom housekeeping notes:
- Please make sure your Zoom username is your first and last name if you'd like to be eligible for the member door prize drawing.
- If you join the meeting using a laptop or desktop and don't have a camera, you will not be visible to others.
- The larger the device, the more people you'll be able to see at once and the easier it will be to see the chat function.
- When you log on, you can choose to be visible or not (but we'd love to see your faces! :))
- To minimize background noise, you will be muted when you join. Only the speaker will be audible.
- You will be able to mute and unmute yourself but please stay respectful of our speakers. We will mute you if your background noise is distracting.
- We will have a brief breakout session between the business portion of the meeting and the speaker. This way we can connect and socialize in smaller groups.
- Make yourselves at home, literally! Grab a drink, grab a snack, grab your knitting, and kick back.
- The meeting will still be social, just in a different way. There is a chat feature, and we encourage you to use it!
- We will be recording our meetings and posting them (when applicable) to the members-only section of our website.
- We will have designated "tech support" to assist you via private chat for any tech issues that you may face. Just type "help" in the chat function to let us know you'd like assistance.
We hope to see you there!

Join us for a Conversion with the Maker Sarah Schira of Imagined Landscapes.
Sarah loves to knit and design gnomes. She discovered a lot of other knitters like gnomes too thanks to her popular #nevernotgnoming knit alongs. When she's not knitting gnomes, she works on knitting patterns for everyday adventures inspired by her love of travel.
Our trunk show guest will be Knitcircus Yarns from Madison, WI.
The trunk show starts at 6:30pm CST and meeting with Sarah starts at 7:00pm CST. The Guild business section will follow Sarah's talk a little after 8:00pm CST
We are launching a new way to register for meetings, so stay tuned for more information.
