Warm Up America - Help us make afghans for people in need

Join us as we gather to knit or crochet squares for afghans for for people in need. If we can get enough squares for one or more finished afghans, we will try to distribute them in Burlington, otherwise we will ship what we can make to 'Warm Up America' to help someone in need.


If you have materials bring them along, if not, come on out anyway we have plenty to share.


Recommended materials:
Yarn: medium-weight or worsted-weight acrylic yarn
Crocheting hook: 4 mm/G-6
Knitting needle: 4.5 mm/7
