Saturday, June 13th, 10 am - 2 pm

Join local knitters and crocheters at the 2009 WWKIP Day at the West Regional Library, 8601 W Broward, Plantation FL 33324.

Join us in the library lobby at the West Regional Public Library, 8601 W Broward Blvd. Free parking in the library parking lots and county public garage; on the bus line. Browse books, chat, and possibly learn some new techniques!

Please bring:
Yourself, friends, and family! We're cool and fun and INSIDE with the joyful resources of the library within reach! Wheelchair accessible. Restrooms. All ages, stages, and folks welcome!

The backup plan is:
We're inside -- so rain or shine (or, as we usually have in summer, rain AND shine), we'll be there! Because it is Hurricane Season, if there is a storm warning or storm conditions, and county buildings are closed, please be safe and stitch in a secure location.

Charity Blanket/Habitat for Humanity

Check it out! This blanket was knit and crocheted by the Betties to donate to Habitat for Humanity in Florida. Here's some great shots of the "seaming party" we had Saturday to put it all together! Thanks to everyone for contributing and for all their hard work!

blanket for Women in Distress

That's a lot of squares! These were all knit or crocheted by Betties to donate to the Women in Distress shelter. It's a wonderful, colorful, snuggly blanket! Thanks so much to everyone who contributed squares and to Carol for crocheting it all together!

The Betties have been busy knitting for the cure this summer! Check out all the handknit goods we put together for Team Vie's online auction! Team Vie is walking in the Michigan Breast Cancer 3-day walk. We're the cheering section for our Midwest Bettie Sandy Matuseski, who is participating in the walk. All money raised benefits Susan G. Komen for the Cure.
So check out the sweet deals at the auction, buy a handknit Bettie item for yourself, and help fund the cure!
