- Visit some of Sonoma County's finest local yarn stores such as Balls and Skeins and The Legacy in Sebastopol, and Cast Away's and Village Knitting in Santa Rosa. These shops contain an excellent community of knitters and knitting groups many of which are affiliated with iKnit Sebastopol.
- Are you looking for inspiration and some examples of the finished project? Just Google "knitting around poles" and check out some of the beautiful examples of knitted street art around the world.
- Finally, come knit with us every Sunday at the Sebastopol Farmer's Market in the town square. Just bring a chair and your knitting, crochet, or weaving. Hope to see you there.
The goal of the iKnit Sebastopol project is to spread joy throughout Sebastopol by covering the light posts and gazebo posts with knitting. Join this community project and show your town spirit by knitting for Sebastopol!

I dropped off my finished square to Tamberlane yesterday! Yah!
ReplyDeleteWhen I was there, I saw the sample pole (2 squares: 1 was pink and 1 was pink and brown). They both have a sort of diamond pattern.
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE them and wonder if I could get the patterns?
Thanks, ~Hassanah
Hi Hassanah,
ReplyDeleteI used Barbara Walker's "A Second Treasury of Knitting Patterns" I think the two patterns I used were Fractured Lattice and Two-Tone Lattice.

ReplyDeleteGreat article on the front page of Sonoma West Times & News!
Thank you Cindy!!!
ReplyDeleteIn case anyone wants my pattern (I made the light blue and yellow sort of houndstooth pattern...), it came from "Vogue Knitting Scarves" and it is called Mosaic Stole.
