Drop in any time from 1:00pm to 5:00pm and help make baby blankets, hats, or scarves. Crochet or knit, bring your own materials or use some of ours, stay for an hour or the whole time!
There will be guides and tutorials throughout the day for those just learning or needing a refresher on how to crochet or knit! Items created will be donated to local families and newborns in need. For those looking for short projects, scarfs and fingerless gloves are a great option and will be donated to the local trustees office. Need more time to finish the project? Drop off finished projects by January 11, 2026 at the Noblesville Branch.
Bringing your own yarn? Remember that newborns have sensitive skin. The yarn needs to be smoke-free and fur-free. It also needs to be soft, not scratchy, and machine washable (so no wool). Yarn weight can vary as long as the patterns used are not loose or lacy. Some common yarn brands that make special yarns for babies include Bernat, Lion Brand, Baby Cuddles, and Caron!
