Knitting Club

The Knitting Club meets weekly
during lunch.

     The Edgewood Knitting Club, which meets during lunch, is in full production mode. It is safe to say we not only eat lunch and socialize, we use our listening skills to learn how to knit and purl. We follow directions and repeat the same stitch over and over until it is committed to memory. We knit until we complete a 36-inch strip that is measured using a yardstick until we reach that magic length. The strips are sewn together to make a baby blanket that will be donated to a charity. Some us have learned to purl and interpret written directions and have made hats, scarves, headbands, and leg warmers. The Knitting Club is more than meets the eye for 4th and 5th grade boys and girls. - Ellen Fiorella
