Community Knitting Sundays

Karen Kennedy, founder of the Sonoma Blanket Project, organized Community Knitting Sunday. Held on the 2nd Sunday of the month, from 11 AM - 1 PM, knitters and crocheters gather at the Round Table Pizza, at 1003 Guerneville Road (across the street from Coddingtown Mall, near Red Wing Shoes and Staples - see map).

Bring something to knit or crochet, either for one of the community knitting projects listed below, or any community knitting project you like! For those who don't knit or crochet, there are always lots of blanket squares to stitch together into blankets for the kids at the Valley of the Moon Children's home. If you don't know how, you'll find many willing to teach you how to do it.
