Knitting program

Clare will provide instruction to beginning knitters to help as they learn to knit their first hat. Experienced knitters can bring their own projects to work on. Participants are encouraged to make hats to donate to Calumet Hats for Hope. Donation hats must be made from washable yarn. If you have suitable yarn you'd like to share with the group, please bring it along. Clare will provide yarn and needles to beginner knitters - everyone else should plan to bring their own tools and yarn.
