Knit-A-Thon THANKS!

December 20, 2010

Just a quick post to THANK everyone who participated or contributed in the knit-a-thon. It was a HUGE success, we had two large boxes of knitted hats/scarves/blankets and even socks that was dropped off at the Women’s Centre along with 3 boxes of food and over $300. WOW – I was so happy that so many people participated! Thank you everyone.

All the beautiful knitted/crocheted items!

Standing room only!
