Southside From the Heart Stitchers

Southside From the Heart Stitchers We are a group of knitters/crocheters. The items created are given to various non-profit organizati We gather to knit and crochet blankets, shawls, hats, etc.

Our group was formed by Shari Henry in 2009 with the guidance of Lois Moore, founder of "From the Heart". for various non-profit groups, who give these items to those in need. We also craft items for infants and children. We use donated yarns and knitting needles and crochet hooks, therefore, we donate back to the community. Our program is FREE and open to the public of ALL ages and gender.

Are you knitting or crocheting at home? I am working on a baby blanket in V stitch. I'll post a picture shortly. I miss the knitting group and hope you all are still having fun.

Hi Ladies, right now (1/7/25) the Hopewell library is open and plans to be open through regular evening hours, so if you want to make it to Tuesday night knitting you can! I'll update you if we close early for any reason.
I'm also going to drop off any hats and scarves we have in stock, to the cold weather shelter tomorrow. If you have anything you want to add now is a great time to bring it in or get stitching! It seems like this cold might linger.

“Knitters have a creative leisure interest that can also help them to cope with life and so improve their mental health. I’m convinced that this is part of the reason why so many people have taken up knitting these days,” said Joanna Nordstrand, one of the study’s authors, in Medical Life Sciences. She is an occupational therapist and Ph.D. student at the University of Gothenburg in Sweden, and a knitter herself.
