Pins & Needles
Congregation Darchei Noam 864 Sheppard Ave W., North York, Ontario, CanadaPins and Needles is reaching out to let you know that we are always very happy to welcome new members to our group. This month, we will meet on Tuesday, January 6, in the shul library from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m. and on Zoom on the third Tuesday of the month (December 20th). We knit, crochet, and socialize. We would love to have other crafters join us to showcase their work and share tips and stories. We would also like to inform you that we are currently in need of yarn donations. Especially helpful are donations of blanket-weight yarn and multiple balls of the same weight or colour. If you’re doing some spring cleaning and have yarn you’re no longer using, we’d be grateful if you’d consider donating it to us. Please contact nancy@kosiner.com if you have any questions.
