Knit and Crochet for Preemies
with Care Wear, our Charity of the Month
|
|
|
|
|
In 1991, Bonnie Hagerman set out to donate clothing to premature and low-birth weight infants in Washington, D.C. hospitals. What began as a personal effort in Hagerman’s Hood College office has expanded across America, Canada, and Italy, with a network of over 2,400 volunteers and more than 28,000 articles of clothing donated. |

Craft with Your Kids This Summer
Join us every other Tuesday for our special podcast series
|
|
|
This summer, Liz & Zontee, the ladies of YarnCraft, will be hosting a special series of podcasts aimed at people who want to craft with their kids! Join us for Summer Crafting with Your Kids every other Tuesday on the YarnCraft website or through iTunes, starting June 9, for topics from creating the perfect craft corner to encouraging your kids to connect to charities through yarncraft.
Starting June 2, YarnCraft will also be moving to a new, shorter format especially for the summer. Take 15-minutes for yourself, and unwind with a little yarn-talk. It's the perfect companion for knitting & crochet at home, on the road, or on the beach. If you haven't tried listening to our radio-style audio-podcast before, this summer is the perfect time to try it!

Terrific Customer Tip
Words of wisdom from knitters & crocheters like you
|
|
|
As a new knitter I am always trying new stitches and techniques. I keep a skein of inexpensive yarn in my knitting bag so that I have it handy to try new things. I make a test swatch and don't worry about gauge. This allows me to be much more confident about trying new things in a pattern. -- Linda R. -- |
