The Halfknits started the New Year with a bang! In December and January we made over 900 baby hats! We helped our friend Alice in Piggot, Arkansas and a family on Pine Ridge.
Right now we are working on 6” blanket blocks making all sizes of blankets.
Thursday, December 17, 2009 at 6:19PM Our December monthly meeting was held this past Saturday, and we were excited to have a little bit of newspaper coverage!
We collected shawls, scarves and wheelchair blankets for the elderly in Young County, Texas. These items are gorgeous and will be distributed to the elderly throughout Young County!
This holiday season in honor of Baby Jesus, we are having our December Baby Hat Challenge. We encourage you to join us! No matter where you live, I'm sure there is an organization near you in need of baby hats at this time of the year.
Please use baby or soft yarn when making hats for babies.
Their skin is delicate so please do not use scratchy worsted weight yarn. Also, please stay away from fun fur or novelty yarn as it comes off easily and can get in babies’ mouths. Check out our baby hat patterns in our patterns section.
Post a comment by clicking below and let us know how many hats you make!

Our November Cro-Knit-Together was fun and a great success! With the blocks people brought and the ones that were made that day we were able to make 12 baby blankets! We donated 6 blankets to Loreto House in Denton and 6 to blankets to the Nursery at JPS Hospital in Fort Worth.
The Halfknits had a great time and were happy to have so many people join us that day! The food was delicious, the company delightful and making 12 blankets in 6 hours was a huge accomplishment!
Thanks to everyone for their help! Please visit us again soon!
