Know as the "The Red Socks Designated Knitters Charity Knitting Team" or, just the Red Socks for short, the Red Socks is a fellowship group of people who are knitting (and crocheting) for ourselves, or creating gifts for our families. We also make prayer shawls, hats, mittens and neck gaiters for the local (Sackett Street) School children. Additionally, we make sweaters, socks, scarves, mittens, and hats for an orphanage in Kazakhstan. We also knit baby hats and booties for Woman and Infants hospital, hats and scarves for the homeless, and someone even knitted a bandage for a leprosy victim in Viet Nam. This humble craft can help in so many ways, and the meetings are fun too. The first and third Wednesday of each month, in the center Sunday school room at 1520 Broad Street, Providence, RI 02905. We start at 6:00 and end at 8:00 PM. Beginners and experts welcome! Some first class teachers are here to help if you need it. Call Wendy at 401 941-2212 if you're interested in joining, or just show up - and bring a friend.
