The Weekly Yarn

IMG_1774

This week we welcomed new yarn, shawls and a visitor to our midst!
Dana brought in more gorgeous autumnal variegated worsted yarn...there are several solid colors in our stash, as well, for those who want to mix and match.


We were treated to a visit from one year old Cadence, who came with her Grandma Robin.  Miss Cadence reminded us how soft our shawls are, how little noise a skein of yarn makes when it is spiked to the floor, and how incredibly fascinating the contents of purses can be! It was great to have her cheerful presence with us.

Our table was piled with shawls over which we prayed.  Some went directly to recipients from our meeting.

Last Thursday was the National Day of Prayer, and the Director of our Older Adult Respite Program asked me to come and talk to the folks at Grace Arbor about the Prayer Shawl Ministry.  They enjoyed hearing about our ministry and some of the items we make. God continues to use our work to bless others! 


They made a request for a knitted or crocheted BUFFALO!  Does anyone have a pattern?  Or want to write one?


Don't forget that May 23 is Communion Sunday.  If you can be there to help set up or take down shawls, let us know!


See you next week.
