Unfortunately I will be in the hospital and can’t volunteer . Otherwise I would . Surgery two days prior . Sorry .
Sorry to hear you need surgery. I hope you heal quickly .
I look forward to crocheting for Knots of Love on Mitzvah Day… and invite anyone whose ever said “I’d like to learn to do that someday” to come and join us. That would be a double mitzvah… learning all the different ways you could support K.O.L., plus learning something new for yourself!
I will be knitting at Mitzvah
Olga, Its not necessary to RSVP for the on-site events, but thanks for letting us know. We’ll see you there!
Looking forward to making beaded eyeglass holders that day!
Thank you, Elyse! I appreciate you taking on this fun, important project! Ordering supplies this week!
