Knitting For Charity
Concepts in Yarn Invites You to Join Us in Knitting to Help Others
Many of the people in the knitting community are blessed and feel the need to give back to those who may not be so fortunate. Concepts In Yarn is proud to be affiliated with Handmade With Love, a local organization that knits scarves for abused women and children. Please click on READ MORE to learn more about this wonderful organization.
Handmade with Love Especially for You
HANDMADE WITH LOVE ESPECIALLY FOR YOU is a nonprofit organization that makes and distributes "comfort" scarves to abused women, men and children. Each scarf is individually wrapped and a note signed by the giver is included. Often, this is the first gift ever received by the recipient. Since September 2008, over 1300 scarves have been made and delivered to 10 different family crisis centers in Southern California, but the surface has barely been scratched. Leslye, who is the champion of this worthy cause, has a lively group of ladies who come into the shop Wednesdays from 5 to 8 pm to knit these scarves. Come in on any Wednesday night and join them, or if you prefer you may knit your scarves at home. We ask for your help in knitting or crocheting scarves to help this cause. You may use yarn from your own stash or come in to the shop and pick up yarns that have been donated by our yarn company partners. Completed scarves should be dropped off at Concepts In Yarn, where you will sign your personalized note to the recipient.
