We Had a Give-Away at Cal Anderson Park Today

 The Friday Friends of the Capitol Hill Knitters of Doooom met today at Cal Anderson to set out our Give-Away items. We decided last year that we would knit/crochet/weave scarves, hats, mittens, whatever we felt like to give out to the homeless. We chose Cal Anderson Park, picked a corner with trees that we liked and hung up our hand-made items. It was fun and we planned it again for this year. 

We met a lot of people that were thankful that we were doing this. We met people who joined us to knit. We had some that brought a hat to share. We were thankful that the sun was shining, and it wasn't as cold as last year. 

We decided that if we gave away our items closer to Thanksgiving then more people would be able to get some warm things before it got as cold as December. However, the cold sneaked up on us and everyone could have used these warm things much sooner. 

This will be a yearly Give Away. If you are interested in helping us, please use the contact form below. If you are in need of donations for your group, also use the contact form below. We love to create, and we want someone to benefit from our creations. One wise person said today, "I only have one head and I make hats every week!"

Thanks to all those that worked so hard to donate this year.
