Zelphia our volunteer, every year takes part in a service project for Martin Luther King day. Our ladies joined in and are working on preemie hats. Everyone here hopes to add a hat over the next few weeks. It is a real accomplishment because many of our knitters just learned within the last few weeks!!!!!!! I will post more photos as the hats are added.

Here are our newest photos. We have many new knitters appreciating this new skill.








This is our social work intern who joins us each week and who is learning to knit.

Here is Zelphia, our volunteer, modeling a hat and scarf a client designed.












This is a poncho made from little balls of yarn tied together. Something beautiful can be made from leftover yarn pieces.






Alison, our volunteer, showing her latest project.

Leslie is also inspiring us with her latest project. She is our volunteer.






We received a bag of squares with the hope that someone would put it together. One of our ladies loved it and completed it.








Everyone was making fingerless gloves for a time and below is an unfelted knitting bag one of our ladies designed and completed.

Nov 5 through Jan 7, 2011

Although I am behind in my photo posting,knitting is still going strong. Thank you to everyone who has written to us and sent us good wishes, yarn, needles, stories of inspiration. It means so much to all of us.



Our client learned how to purl and figured out a new pattern for a hat and scarf on her own with very little instruction.


This is a first project on washcloth yarn.


We had a visitor who learned how to knit today!
