Calling all Knitters! We need your leftover yarn!

Hi Everyone,
At this time of the year, we tend to think more of those in need and try to find ways to lend a helping hand.  For those of you who knit or do crafts with yarn, this will be an easy fit.

Friends at Kennebec Behavioral Health are seeking donations of yarn for a family in need.  This family wishes to create knitwear and crafts to sell at local craft fairs, to generate income to purchase essentials to carry them through the coming winter months.   They want to do the work themselves, they just need help getting the materials to create sellable items.

If you have left over yarn or yarn from a project you never got around to and have now lost interest in, you can either drop it off here at Beads on the Kennebec, 333 Water Street in downtown Augusta, or, at Kennebec Behavioral Health at 66 Stone Street, Augusta to the attention of Melissa Winchester.

Please bring your donated yarn during working hours starting Monday, November 14th (Tuesday here at the shop) through Saturday, November 26th.

Thank you in advance for your open hearts and generosity.

Linda
