Knitting Goes to the Dogs!!

Join Knitter Pam Anthony on the first and third Friday afternoons of the month from 3:00 - 5:00 PM.  Bring your own project to knit, OR help make squares to be sewn into dog blankets for the adoptable dogs at the Stratham SPCA.  This program is for all ages, but if you're in grades 1 - 5, we ask that you have prior knitting experience.  If you're planning to help out the SPCA, please bring:

  •      worsted weight ACRYLIC yarn
  •      size 10 needles
  •      OR simply make a six by six square to donate!

The dogs will love you for it! 

Statistics show that dogs who have a blanket in their kennels are 50% more likely to get adopted!!
