Our friends at STITCHES West have teamed up with Knitted Knockers for a fundraiser with a pretty great incentive. They’ll be donating a STITCHES Prize package (worth $1945 – $2309) that will be won by someone who donates $10 to Knitted Knockers, you can find all the details here.
Knitter Knockers at STITCHES West 2016. Read more on the WEBS Blog at blog.yarn.com
They’re also hosting a STITCHES West knocker drive with a goal of 1000 knit and/or crocheted knockers. You can knit or crochet knockers then send them, or bring them, to the Knitted Knocker booth (stuffed or un-stuffed). You can bring your knit or crochet knocker to the show and drop them off at the Knitted Knockers booth. Of you can mail them to XRX, Inc. by February 1, 2016 at the address below. Please include a note with your knit or crochet knocker(s) with your name and address.
   XRX, Inc.
Knitted Knockers
2704 West 3rd Street
PO Box 965
Sioux Falls SD 57101
If you have the yarn you want to work with, that’s great, but please remember that knockers need to be made of soft, washable, non-wool and of either sport, or DK weight. Our Valley Yarns Longmeadow is a great option! If you’re looking for patterns or technique videos to get you started, you can find those on the Knitted Knockers ‘Make a Knocker’ page.
