Markham Meeting

Although the turnout for this month's Markham meeting was a bit light, we received some wonderful items, including a couple of hand-knit stuffed toys!  So let's start the show:


From Mary and the ladies at Cedarcroft Retirement Residence, a large selection of hats and preemie hats, some soft baby washcloths and a beautiful patchwork squares blanket. But the teddy and reindeer toys stole the show. Aren't they adorable? Mary's 2 scarves are rolled up behind them, holding them up. Thanks to all of you!

Christine, as always, had a lovely selection of items to donate:

A crocheted hat and scarf

A very fine seed-stitch blanket.

Hats and scarves - some even in the Argo or Leafs colours
for any young sports fans
 
Another blanket came from Marianne:
 



And finally, Monica supplied some Mobius-style cowls and a short buttoned scarf:


This is how the cowls look. Nice and warm and very easy to make!

Thanks to everyone for coming out and making donations. Many of us had projects still in progress; we should see them at the next meeting at the beginning of December.
