WOW! When was the last time something went better than your wildest dreams? This year's United Way Day of Caring Knit-In brought in more people than we expected and we were thrilled they were all there. We knitted caps, booties, blankets, and prayer shawls and had a blast of a time. Taking over the showroom at Lumberton Chevrolet I am not sure all the sales people knew what was going on with yarn, needles, hooks, and patterns flying everywhere. Not only did we have a great turn out for the knit-in but we had a pile of items that were donated. More are still coming in and all have to be tagged. Thank you to everyone who came out to knit and donated items. Especially those first timers who had never knitted before and are now knitting wizards. Stay tuned for the final tally and check out our knit in page on Facebook.
The
United Way Day of Caring also involved other projects from around the county. Projects ranged from landscaping to wheelchair ramps building and even a huge canned food drive. To learn more about the Day of Caring check out this article in the
