Summer Charity Knit-along
|
This summer it is our privilege to organize a charity knit-along. We all knit or crochet for ourselves or for family and friends. Why not take the time to knit or crochet a "hug" for those truly in need of one? We are working with Alice's Embrace, a non-profit organization devoted to providing hand-knitted and hand-crocheted prayer shawls and lap blankets to those suffering from Alzheimer's disease. The completed prayer shawls and lap blankets will help warm, comfort, and soothe these dear folks facing the daily challenges of the disease.

From June 1st through Labor Day, come in to purchase a kit that will make either a knitted or crocheted prayer shawl or lap blanket. Return the finished shawl or blanket to the store by Labor Day, and you will be entered into our prize drawing which includes gift certificates to Westport Yarns, project kits from Berroco, needle sets and much more!
Materials: Summer Charity Knit-along Kit from Westport Yarns*, size 13 needles, crochet hook size G or H depending on pattern, tapestry needle for weaving in ends, optional: stitch markers
Patterns can be found at the Alice's Embrace website: alicesembrace.org
Together, let's make a difference.
* Kits include 7 skeins of Berroco Comfort which have been discounted by Westport Yarns to keep the price of the kit under $30.
