Say Hello to
I am so excited to launch my new membership community


The Betty McKnitiverse is an international community for creating and engaging with crocheters and knitters making patterns by Betty McKnit and all kinds of other things.

Any crocheter or knitter is welcome, whether you're a seasoned 6-Day Blanketeer, or just getting started on your knit/crochet journey. We will meet you wherever you are.
Inside The Betty McKnitiverse you will:

  • Gain access to free and deeply discounted ad-free .pdfs from Betty's pattern library.
  • Enjoy early access to Betty's new patterns with pre-releases and draft releases. There has never been a better time to be in the know about all the exciting new patterns in development!
  • Discover Betty's exclusive "unicorn" pattern variations that have never been released to the public, and never will be.
  • Get help and support with Betty's patterns through courses, articles, groups, and live calls.
  • Find what you need with beautifully organized content housed all on one platform. No more googling to find Betty's educational resources, or being distracted by your social media feed.
  • Join live-filming of CALs and KALs where you can work along with Betty and have your questions answered in real time, while hanging out with other like-minded yarnies in a casual supportive community.
  • Q&A and Craft & Chat zoom calls with Betty and friends. This is a really fun, creative, and supportive crafting community (we make every effort to schedule calls at different times to allow members in different time zones to attend.)
  • Connect with other knitters and crocheters all over the world.

You've heard of a one-skein wonder... the Metro North is a two-skein wonder. This magical pattern optimizes your yardage. Any two skeins of yarn (or one, divided in half by weight) will make this interesting asymetrical chevron scarf that looks great in every size from bandana to blarf.

Of course, there are directions for scarves of specific sizes, if that's your jam, but the magic of this pattern is in working 1/2 of the yarn before beginning the decreases. It leaves you with enough yarn to complete and border your scarf. With the halfway home method, you will have to let go of knowing exactly what size your finished scarf will be.

If you have that one skein, or two skeins of really special yarn that you bought because it was beautiful, but you had no idea what you would make with it, Metro North is your project.

We will be meeting for four weeks over zoom. Please register for each zoom call to be placed on the email list to receive the recordings of the classes if you are unable to be there in person. Replays will only be available to registered participants.

Materials:
You will need at least 230 yards of #3 DK weight yarn for a bandana-sized scarf, up to 1000 yards for a shawl, or even larger if you like (you can totally pull it off) and a hook that matches your yarn.

Two skeins of something really lovely are the perfect choice.

Registration is required to join the zoom call. Email Betty with any questions.

Have you made a 6-Day Kid Blanket or Star Blanket to comfort someone special? Maybe they were recovering from a difficult illness or trauma and you wanted to let them know they were loved.

Share your story! I would love to know what your blankets mean to you and to the people that you love. I’ll choose some stories to feature on my social media pages and in other projects.
