We are starting a knitting/crocheting group. Everyone is invited to join. You don’t have to be a member. The goal is to make items to be given to home bound people, patients at the Smilow Cancer center and Hospice of SE CT, newborns at local hospitals and to have a supply of hats mittens, gloves and scarfs to hand out at St. Sophia for low income people. Meeting in a group is for a social atmosphere and to be able to help each other out on projects. Teaching moments. Some of us want to learn to crochet with others helping us out. If you are interested, please contact JoAnn Ballassi at [email protected]. Let me know what days are good for you. Looking forward to hearing from you🙋👋🏻🧣
