Charity Knitting: All Wound Up Our chemo hat drive is benefiting two local cancer centers in the Edmonds area. Charity Makers are encouraged to knit hats of all sizes, colors, and patterns for men and women. Please only use cotton or bamboo yarns (no acrylic or animal fibers). You may drop off your hats at All Wound Up. Accessories and garments of all kinds are also collected at the store for Clothes for Kids. These can be made in any washable fiber. Stranded by the Sea Stranded by the Sea's Hook & Needle Knockers Group is collecting knit and crocheted "Knitted Knockers" for women who have undergone mastectomies or other procedures to the breast. Anyone is welcome to attend the group's bi-monthly meetings in the shop on the first and third Tuesdays of the month from 4:30 - 6 PM. Completed knockers made with approved yarns may be dropped off any time at Stranded by the Sea. Our group will size and stuff the knockers for patients at the Swedish Cancer Institute in Edmonds.
