Final stretch for Hats & Scarves Project!

Friday, Feb.  5 is the final day that Living Earth’s Hats & Scarves “drop-off” baskets will be out to collect hand-knit and crocheted items for kids, families, and other folks this winter. (See HatsandScarves.org for details.) Since just mid-November we have collected more than 450 beautiful hand-crafted items to share home-made warmth with those in need.  But don’t stop yet!

Our distribution partners this winter include IRCO Africa House, Emanuel Children’s Hospital, Sisters of the Road, Blanchet House, and the Clothes Closet for Portland Public Schools. Drop-sites for finished items are at Seven Corners New Seasons Market and all Albina Community Bank branches.

If you’re working on a hat or scarf that isn’t quite done, or need yarn to finish something up, post via the website and we’ll connect with you.

Thanks to everyone who is making this year’s project so incredibly successful!
