4th Annual Giving Wreaths

We are collecting once again for Seniors in our community.

Four years ago the Downtown Auburn Cooperative was throwing around ideas of how we could give back during the Holidays. Of course we thought of kids and families in need, but then someone suggested seniors in our community. Sometimes the elderly don't get gifts from families and we wanted to make sure they felt special! So we teamed up with the Auburn Senior Center (who delivers meals to seniors via Meals on Wheels). We collect all the things and the Auburn Senior Center delivers them!!

A Little Knitty is a collection site, as well as many other businesses Downtown Auburn!!! It's easy to get involved....

Step #1: Select an item (or two) from the list below

Karen Chemo Cap 5th Anniversary Makeover

I had someone ask me about the Karen Chemo Cap Fan Stitch and I decided the video and pattern were both in need of a make-over! Especially when I noticed this year is the 5th anniversary of publishing this pattern. When my mom had chemo I made her a few different hats because honestly it felt like the only thing I could do. I designed this one just for her, and was super excited when it was her favorite! After she passed I wasn't sure I wanted to release the design, but with a little time...it felt like the right thing to do! You can download the pattern for free here (please give it a favorite over on Ravelry so that it gets a little Ravelry love!!!): Ravelry: Karen Chemo Cap pattern by A Little Knitty Designs You can purchase the yarn we used here: Cumulus by Juniper Moon Farm (alittleknitty.com) Here is the video if you need help with the fan stitch!

Chemo Caps - Part 2

The Gia Chemo Cap doesn't have the same sort of story behind it as the Karen Cap , but it was developed with Chemo patients in mind! Please share this pattern with anyone who would like to knit a hat for someone in need! You can download your pattern here: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/gia-chemo-cap
