For this the second installment of the introductory series, where we meet each of the people working hard both behind the scenes and out in front of the cameras, so to speak, we’ll be meeting our newest chairperson, Marion Scichilone!

    Firstly, let’s cover what the Knit News is, and what the chairperson of Knit News is responsible for.

    Knit News is almost exactly as it sounds; a bit of news from the wider world of crafting around us. I say “almost”, because it isn’t, just as our guild isn’t, strictly knitting. The news may be about crochet, or a new breed of sheep. It could be trends, designers, or what other guilds around the country are up to. You can even email your own suggestions of what you’d like to know more about, or send any other newsworthy tips to her official email here: skgknitnew@snohomishknittersguild.org

    So what does the Knit News chairperson do, exactly? They're our very own world news reporter, of sorts. They dig around and see what’s happening out there, and then they share it with us. After researching what’s happening, they pull it all together into a convenient little package and submit it to the guild’s website and newsletter for us to read, and they report “live”, too, during a five-minute segment at guild meetings.

    The Knit News chairperson is an invaluable member of our team, and now let’s introduce to you just who she is!

    Hello there! My name is Krystin, and some of you may recognize me from the monthly meeting recaps in the newsletter. I've been given the immense honor of being the newest SKG Blogger, and I hope I do the task justice!

    For our first little miniseries of posts together, I'll be introducing you to the busy bees running this hive. Today I'll tell you a bit about myself, and as September rolls along, I'll post introductions of our Guild Council and Chairpersons.

    So without further ado, click "read more" below to find out a little bit about your new SKG Blogger!
