Twenty Seven Sawyer
Knitting for Neighbors
Years ago, in early fall, we began meeting once a month on a Saturday morning, where we laughed, some hummed or sang a gospel favorite, and some sat in pleasant quiet. All while we knitted scarves for our neighbors. My did we have fun! No fanfare, simply a group of giving souls ages 10 - 85 with a desire to gift a warm, handmade scarf to a cold neighbor. We are excited to return this year and extend an invitation for you to join us. Dates will be posted here no later than August 1, 2026
