    12 inch afghan squares for homeless elders
 
 
 
 
The Creative Stitch hosted a KAL on Sunday, Jan 22 in the afternoon--afghan squares for HEARTH, to provide residents of their new facility with a gift from our hands. Join us again on Sunday, January 29 in the afternoon. We will have ideas for easy-to-knit patterns. All squares should be 12" and made from a washable, worsted weight yarn.
Hearth, Inc., whose mission is to end elder homelessness, will be opening a new residence for 59 homeless and at risk seniors in April. The residents at Hearth's six current sites have begun a campaign to knit and solicit hand knit or crocheted afghans for each new resident.
 
Since the goal is afghans which are 45" x 75", I am not asking anyone to
take on such a daunting task. Instead, I am hoping some of you will volunteer to knit or crochet just one square. I will put them together. Color, pattern, weight, texture, and yarn are completely up to you. The only request is that the yarn be machine washable and dry-able.
 
Many thanks for your help and support.
Mary Parker, Hearth Board Member
