16 Thursday July 15 2021 Latest Canterbury news at starnews.co.nz continuing education NOR’WEST NEWS Spreading kindness through craft Crafting For a Cause is a group of crafters meeting weekly at WEA to create things people need. These clever crafters knit, crochet, sew, and repurpose materials generously donated to WEA Canterbury. Creating social capital, this group are helping reduce stash cupboards and keep materials from going into landfill, while sharing skills and ideas. Polar fleece has been turned into kitten blankets for the SPCA and over 50 children’s beanies and mittens for It Takes a Village, who told them “The mittens have been a life saver for our families”. Wool yarn has been knitted up as hats, scarves and baby blankets; handmade paper has been turned into Thank You cards; cotton yarn knitted and crocheted into dishcloths, facecloths and cat toys; curtains recycled into tote bags and net curtains into vege bags and laundry bags and sold as a fundraiser to members of the WEA. To find out more or join the group, visit www.cwea.org.nz or drop into the WEA office at 59 Gloucester Street between 9:30 am and 3:00 pm Monday to Friday.
