A facilitator brought various red balls of yarn to make the 5 ft. long scarf. You can knit it, you can crochet it. As long as it meets the requirements of being 60 inches long and 5-8 inches wide.
I am loom knitting a scarf. Another member is asking me to show her how to loom knit a scarf. She is actually very advanced in one and two needle knitting. She simply wants to learn a new medium.
This projects is a very good way to flow God's rules for Works of Mercy.
* clothe the naked
* visit the sick or imprisoned, the lonely
Visit foster youth in high school and college setting. They've aged out and have no one to watch over them.
* feed the hungry
Care packages are also made to show they are loved.
* give drink to the thirsty
Ditto care packages
(Extra: it came from you because you did it yourself)
If you can do a search for Red Scarf Project in Chicago. You can participate in it from wherever you are. My group is in California. Scarves are collected between September 1-December 1 yearly. Then, in February the care packages are given out to the foster youths.
