We are continuing our lemon hats and many of us are getting to be really creative hat knitters. We also have many blankets being worked on with all of the part skiens of yarn that we receive. Each project has so many yarns from so many places and it all works together to create something beautiful, original, and unique. Thanks to everyone for the good wishes that we receive. And thanks to our volunteers who help out each week bringing so much enthusiasm and knowledge to our group.
