| We all know how good handknits make us feel, and we want to give that feeling to as many people as we can this winter! So this year, we're again focusing our charity knitting efforts on a fantastic Philadelphia organization, Action Wellness.
Action Wellness was founded as Action AIDS in 1986 to help Philadelphians living with HIV/AIDS and quickly became one of the largest AIDS service organizations in Pennsylvania. In 2016, they rebranded as Action Wellness. While supporting those living with AIDS, they have expanded their services to help all people with chronic illnesses access the healthcare services they need. It's so easy to whip up a hat or two in between projects, and we want to knit hats for as many of our fellow Philadelphians as possible, and we hope you'll join us! Here's what we're doing and how you can help: - We've posted a free pattern in our journal for a chunky weight hat sized from baby through adult. Many of Action Wellness' clientele have families that could also use some handknits, so we're hoping to knit a mix of kid and adult hats. - We're offering a special price on Berroco Ultra Wool Chunky. Normally $12.50/skein, for this project, it's 25% off at $9.38/skein. Shop online with code AW2022 through November 30, 2022, or let us know you're knitting for Action Wellness when you're in the shop. 1 skein makes 1 hat. - For every hat we receive from you, we'll donate $1 to Action Wellness. Our deadline is November 30, 2022. We will deliver the hats the first week of December to prepare them for the holiday season, so let's get knitting!
You don't have to use this yarn or pattern to participate, but we recommend something soft and machine washable. Thank you! |
