Crochet Club: Cozy Creations With Colorful Yarn

Help me give my students yarn they need to continue thriving in crochet club.

$312 goal

Hooray! This project is fully funded

My Project

Our school's crochet club is absolutely booming! The 20 young members, grades 4-7, have been working so hard this year, and their progress has been incredible. In September, kids couldn't figure out how to even hold a crochet hook, and now they are making hats and plushies.

Hats, plushies, purses, and hair ties: you name it and my kids are buzzing with excitement to make it.

Fiber arts get very pricey, and many of my students are unable to afford or access yarn for themselves. Our club is supported almost entirely by donors from our community and online. Please help our club stay alive by contributing to this project for yarn for my kids to make warm hats and other fun creations!
