Knitters are some of the most generous people I know. Recently 2 charity knitting opportunities have come to light in our area.
The first is for the Bethany Crisis Nursery in Morgan Park. They have been hit hard by the economy this year and their clothing room is suffering. New or gently used winter outerwear in sizes infant – 6x are being collected by the Duluth Noon Optimist Club. Clothing can be brought to the Incline Station for drop off before the end of November.
The second is for the Kids Closet. Kids Closet is a program in the Duluth Schools to give kids who need them a warm winter coat, hat and mittens. The closets are out of mittens!! School age sized mittens can be dropped of at Yarn Harbor. If you’re an out of towner and want to help out with this cause, leave a comment and I’ll email you an address you can send mittens to.
Please email me info about how to send donation to Kids Closet. Do you have an email for them?
Thanks.
