New 2012 Knitters!

Welcome to our new 2012 knitters! We have a good group of 5th and 6th graders coming together to knit and share stories days 2, 4 and 6 lunch and recess times.  Below are just a few of this year's knitters with some projects already finished....many, many more on the way! Stay tuned for some more cool and creative projects, and even cooler kids!
Thank you to everyone that has donated yarn and needles.  We are especially in need of sized 8 to 10 needles, shorter lengths are best for beginner knitters! We would also welcome some size 8 or 9 circular needles, shorter lengths helpful for hat making!

 Scarf for a younger cousin!
Great hat for an American Girl Doll!
 Adventurous fingerless gloves on the needles!
 Crocheted potholder number one!
 More finished scarves for presents......
Twisted cowl.......
