Knitting News, Notes and Events

 

Carolina Fiber Frolic, March 20-22. I heard it's sold out but email for details.

 

New KAL: The RAK-Along

#rakalong

 

Rak: Random Act of Kindness

 

Knit something for someone just because, or knit for charity. Not a birthday or holiday, but just to do something nice for someone else. 

 

Dates: March 1 through May 1

 

Charity Suggestions: 

Knit your Bit: Scarves for Veterans

Halos of Hope

 

Your local homeless shelter, NICU, etc. 

 

There will be 2 threads open on the Actually Knitting Podcast board: A chatter thread and an FO Thread. 

 

Rules: 

1 post per person in the FO thread (because there is no minimum yardage) 

Update your original post if you finish more than one object. 

Start early if you want! 

Chat it up in the chatter thread. Make suggestions for charities, small gifts to give as Random Act of Kindness. 

 

Not sure about prizes yet, but I will work on it. But the point is to knit something just to make someone happy. 

 

I am going to be teaching knitting classes at a local women's recovery center. If you have any needles, yarn, etc, that you would like to donate, please PM or email me! We can use anything you would like to donate and the volunteer coordinator has told me that supplies are a big issue for them. Help me create some new knitters who will someday be able to tell their own #becauseofknitting story.
