hats for preemies

OVER 3500 HATS DONATED!

To all who have donated, THANK YOU! Your generosity is incredible!

We are now donating our hats to St. Joseph's Hospital in Paterson, NJ. This collection is ongoing! The FREE knit and crochet patterns are basic (perfect for beginners!) and use only small amounts of time and yarn. Yarn and pattern does not have to originate from Close Knit, but please make sure hats are SMALL and SOFT (small enough to fit a tangerine).

Donate five (5) knitted or crocheted hats and receive a 15% OFF ENTIRE PURCHASE coupon. Free patterns are available at the store or at www.ravelry.com. (Please, do not use wool for baby patterns).

monday morning charity knitting

Start the week off with some good friends and a good deed. Each Monday morning, 10am-12pm, a group of generous women gather at the shop to create squares for lap blankets. Their blankets are currently being donated to the Alzheimer's Unit at St. Joseph's Hospital in Paterson, NJ. All are welcome to join and lap blankets (36"x36") are desperately needed!

At the end of the year, the eleven winners will receive one discount sale day, in addition to the prizes they have won throughout the year.
