Just home from the Sticks, String and Stewardship retreat in Sudbury, ON where we spent a weekend celebrating charity knitting.
Some hand-knitted goodness will be going to people who need it. This group also provides knitting kits (yarn, pattern, needles, measuring tape, scissors) to the House of Kin, a residence for families of patients in the regional Sudbury Hospital. Someone being flown in to the hospital with a loved one doesn't always have time to grap everything that they might need for the long waiting times ahead. What a special gift to a knitter in a time of stress.

It was a wondeful retreat.

    I really love the idea of providing knitting kits. It's the first time I've heard of that.
