Calling all yarn crafters! Help us create handmade scarves and blankets to support groups in our community. Patrons must know how to knit/crochet and bring their own tools.
Yarn and patterns will be provided, but feel free to bring your own as well. Drop by at any point during the event and stay for however long you would like to work on projects, get crafting help, etc. Items do not have to be finished at the event and can be completed at home. Please drop off completed blankets and red scarves at the Leonardtown Library by December 1st.
Email bthorne@stmalib.org for additional guidance, to make yarn or project donations, and to learn about other ways to help.
