Overview:
Do you love to knit? Join our community of compassionate crafters! As a member of the Wellspring Knitting Group, you’ll help create handmade items—such as hats, scarves, and blankets—that bring warmth and comfort to families and children in need.

Responsibilities:

  • Knit or crochet handmade items to donate to families served by Wellspring
  • Use your own materials or pick up donated yarn and supplies (when available)
  • Join group meet-ups (in person or virtual) to connect with fellow knitters and share your progress
  • Follow simple item guidelines (we’ll provide patterns and preferred sizes)

Time Commitment:

  • Flexible! Knit on your own schedule or join regular group sessions
  • Ongoing opportunity with no minimum hours required

Skills Needed:

  • Basic knitting or crocheting skills
  • Willingness to contribute time and creativity to support local families
  • Open to learning or sharing tips with other crafters (all skill levels welcome!)

Support Provided:

  • Access to patterns and donation guidelines
  • Group support and optional knit-alongs or meet-ups
  • Occasional supplies provided as available

Impact:
Your handmade items offer more than warmth—they show families that someone cares. Whether you craft one item or one hundred, your kindness makes a difference.
