Below are the charities and non-profits we support. We give back on an annual basis, and are constantly evaluating those charities that might be in dire need.
Knitting Charities

Hats 4 the Homeless

Warmth for Warriors

Winding Charity Fund
When you bring in yarn to be wound into balls that was purchased from outside our store, we ask you donate $3 per skein to the winding charity fund. We change out the charity periodically.
Currently, our winding charity fund is supporting Second Harvest of Silicon Valley.
