Crocheting, Knitting, and Yarn

Help me give my students crocheting and knitting supplies, because if they have full skeins of yarn, they can complete projects much easier.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Lizzy's classroom raised $517

My Project

My middle school students will be partaking in a crocheting and knitting class next quarter. My yarn supply has dwindled, and there is hardly enough yarn of one color for a student to complete a project. I would love to restock my yarn supply. I have some crochet hooks, but not enough for 20+ students. I don't have any knitting supplies.

In addition to the crochet and knitting supplies, the books with patterns would help inspire my students to discover new projects.

Knitting and crocheting are great skills everyone should learn, and it'll help my students learn a craft that will last a lifetime. Some students will be starting for the first time, some will be practicing what they know, and some are experts who would benefit from sitting and chatting with peers while creating a yarn masterpiece.
