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
