It is a great way for girl scouts, after school programs and home school children to be introduced to knitting and crochet. I am proud to be a part of this organization with a program that teaches children from all ages and backgrounds how to knit.

Our afghans go to several orphanages in Mexico and in Africa. • Visit: Helping Hands Foundation at: http://www.needleartsmentoring.org/index.html |
