Charity Knitting Opportunities
Puddletown Knitters Guild received a generous contribution of yarn for charity knitting. We have the yarn at our meetings, so grab a couple of skeins and knit some items for folks who could really use a new warm hat, scarf, or mittens. Adult and kid sizes appreciated. Of course you can use your own yarn and any pattern you like!

We are currently knitting hats for the Sunshine Division. Since 1923, the Sunshine Division has been providing food and clothing relief to Portland families and individuals in need. Whether due to the loss of a job, domestic crime, illness, or victims of fire or disaster, the Sunshine Division has built a 95-year legacy of mobilizing quickly and efficiently to assist distressed Portlanders.
We would like to collect all Sunshine division hats by the October guild meeting on the 11th. |
