All About Yarn Weekly Update March 22, 2017

Thank you for supporting All About Yarn, your LYS! –Julie & Gunnar

Hello Everyone! Shop Hop is right around the corner and the staff and

I are busy preparing the shop for the large influx of hoppers! I am so

excited to be a part of such an important cause.

We all worry about how much yarn we buy, it is important to

remember that there are families that can’t even put food on the table.

That is where ACBC Food shelf comes in and helps!

You can do your part by purchasing either the $50 EZ Pass or the

$100 VIP Pass and hop for a cause! Read on for more information

and a link to the website.

Donna S. from Tuesday morning class, along with our shop, has created a way for you to help the people

of Ukraine. Donna has visited Ukraine over 53 times and has helped with many humanitarian missions to

this war-torn country. There are over 3 million Ukrainian refugees who have fled the war in eastern

Ukraine. The refugee women are knitting hats for the refugees, including children, and soldiers with yarn

that was sent from Minnesota. They need yarn and needles to make the much-needed hats.

We have created a “Hats of Love Kit” that will be sent overseas. Each kit will provide either 2 children’s

hats or 1 adult hat and includes 1 skein of worsted weight yarn, size 7 double pointed needles, a stitch

marker and the hat pattern created by our own Sherry Heide!

How can you help? We are asking you to donate $20 per kit. Each kit will be packed and sent to the

Ukraine via a Refugee Container.

You have until March 31st to donate and purchase a kit or two for the women in Ukraine to knit.

Please call or stop by the shop to make your donation. All About Yarn will package the kits and they will

be picked up and shipped by April 1st. If you have any questions, please let me know. – Thank you! Julie
