These hand warmers were made by Pangsee. She had a few minor difficulties with the shaping, so we made them into haute couture hand warmers with some ruffles and shaping. Every project she knits, her knitting continues to improve!

Knitting class has been going well. The skill of everyone in the class is increasing each week. We are up to 42 washcloths donated by the women!!



This washcloth was made and donated by Hilda.



This washcloth was made and donated by Gloria.





These three projects were made by Pongsi. I put them in order of the time they were knit, since I think they show a lot of improvement. The colors are beautiful and bright and such great progress!

This hat with the double pom pom was made by Elizabeth. It was purled all the way around, great practice of a new skill for her. And the best part is that it looks great on!!

These washcloths were made and donated back to TGP by Hilda. She doubled her yarn with larger needles to make knitting comfortable with her hands. Then she worked with adding new colors, so each is different.

This is a neck warmer made by Ponsi. It will have a button on it and fit snuggly around the neck for an added layer of warmth.

Happy KNitting!!
