As part of our statewide QCWA project in collaboration with Love Your Sister , we’re calling on members and branches to knit mismatched gloves using leftover wool, no need to buy anything new!

Each unique pair will be gifted to Love Your Sister’s Villagers to represent that every cancer journey is different – a powerful message of love, support, and solidarity.

If your branch has started knitting, we’d love to see what you’ve made! Share your creations, tag us, and use so we can spread the joy across our QCWA community.

Let’s keep knitting with purpose, passion and heart.
