Charity Knitting Opportunities

The Guild's official charity project for 2019 is in partnership with Rose Haven. Knit a blanket - on your own or with a friend - for the women and children served by this local organization. Rose Haven is a day shelter and community center in Portland serving more than 3,300 women and children annually who are experiencing the trauma of abuse, loss of home and poverty. Rose Haven first helps meet basic needs for food, clothing, hygiene, and safety. Then guests are provided education, support and resources to assist them in regaining stability in their lives.
See below for additional 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!
