January 22, 2017 meeting!

We had a fantastic meeting today! We had a special guest speaker, Ms. Paula Kinney,
Program Director of HavenHouse St. Louis. She told us about HavenHouse's mission, and we were so happy to donate 48 hats, 2 pairs of slippers, 4 pairs of gloves, 1 headband, and 9 scarves knitted by Bella, Carolyn, Grace H, Jenne, Joanne M, Joanne S, Katie, Madeline, May, Na, Olivia H, Sarah, and Yun for HavenHouse guests!

Mrs. Judy Giovanoni, president of Newborns in Need of Eastern Missouri (NIN) was also at our meeting, and we donated 9 baby afghans knitted by Bella, 1 baby hat knitted by Katie, and 1 pair of baby booties knitted by Jenne for NIN. We are starting our big NIN challenge now-- please knit baby items (hats, booties, afghans, etc.) of your choice. Please remember that baby afghans need to be at least 30 inches by 30 inches in size. Please let us know if you need yarn or patterns for your baby projects. Thank you!

Also, we have reached an amazing milestone!  As of today, 37 volunteers have contributed almost 2600 hours of service, knitting 52 red scarves for Foster Care to Success' Red Scarf Project, 183 items for Newborns in Need of Eastern Missouri, and 139 items for HavenHouse St. Louis. Wow!!!

Keep up the fantastic work, everyone!!!
