KNIT OR CROCHET SCARVES:

♥   Make scarves from kits or from your own yarn following the directions listed on our website's Free Patterns page.


PUT TOGETHER SCARF KITS

♥   Meet at Leslye's house (directions to be provided if you’re
      interested) on Tuesdays, 10am to 1pm.  Tasks include measuring yarn,
      choosing yarns for kits, winding "magic-ball" kits, bagging kits. 


WRAP SCARVES:

♥   Usually meet twice a month at Leslye Borden’s house on Thursday’s
     10am-2pm.  Tasks include inspecting scarves for completeness,
     rolling them up and tying a colorful ribbon around them.  Tasks
     may also include mending scarves, adding ID tags or adding fringe.


PACK SCARVES AND SEND/MAIL TO SHELTERS:

♥   Usually occurs once a month, at the same time we’re wrapping
     scarves at Leslye’s house; however, may occur on a Thursday
     following a scarf wrapping session.  Tasks include packing the
     boxes for the shelters and completing the mailing information
     if applicable.


MAKE SCARF ID TAGS:

♥   The ID tags, attached to each scarf, need to be printed, cut and hole
     punched.


HELP WITH ADMINISTRATION TASKS:

♥   Maintain spreadsheets, volunteer lists and miscellaneous duties such
     as filing and sorting correspondences.
