Last year, the knitting group, subset of the Troy Women's Association, checked off items on their ToDo list, like Santa does on Christmas morning.Washcloths for soldiers. Check.
Hats and Mittens for those in need of them. Check.
Chemo Caps. Check.
An afghan for a raffle at our craft show. Check. (raffle brought in several hundred dollars.)
Women's hats for charities that support women. (See picture of our new leader with a hat)
This year, the woman at the helm, Kathy F. She brings in lots of ideas and energy.
This year, we will be reaching out to On My Own, a group of developmentally impaired adults, to teach them to knit. Troy Public Library has opened a room for this purpose on Saturday from two to five. And if all goes well, this offer, to teach knitting, will be shared with Troy High students wanting to find something to do with their hands and fingers beside texting. :)
