Adagio TeaChef Outside the Teacup Contest
Adagio’s TeaChef is a community of people passionate about cooking and tea. More specifically, cooking with tea. Each month they select a tea flavor and invite you to submit your recipe and picture. Then the community votes on the most creative of recipes. The winner gets a $50 gift certificate to Adagio Teas.
Baby Love Blanket Drive
Twisted is once again proud to be taking part in the Baby Love Blanket Drive by offering a 10% discount on yarn for a baby blanket, and by being a drop-off site. The Baby Love Blanket Drive is a 2 month long, charity craft-along (Oct- Dec) where people in Portland, Oregon (and beyond) will knit, crochet and quilt blankets for newborns in need. For more info, please read our blog post.
Sisters of the Road knitting group
The Sisters of the Road knitting circle (which meets on Wednesdays at the Personalist Center) is looking for donations of anything knit-related in any condition. Clean out your stash, get rid of those needles you just don’t use anymore, share books you don’t have room for, and help enable someone else to catch our addiction! Anything you can donate will be used and appreciated. If you have any questions, you can email Marla Koch (midlifecrisistour2002@yahoo.com). We are collecting items at Twisted, so on your next trip over, drop off some of that extra stuff and make room for more.
Bear Mittens
We’ve been told that the AAF has all the bear mittens it can use for the moment. Thanks so much for all your hard work! Read more.
