     We are joining together to "Warm Up America!"  We are crocheting and knitting 7" by 9" sections and joining them into afghans, baby blankets, lap robes... which are distributed through social service agencies to local families. We got involved because it's a project that allows each person to make a contribution. Together we can warm someone's life in a small personal way. Please join us!   Thank you! to our volunteers!  We are also working on Prayer shawls and baby hats for the St. Joseph Hospital  noggineer volunteer program.

THE comforting hug of a special wrap is priceless. Come in and see our great selection! Shawls, scarves and more...   A lacy shawl keeps you comfortable and looks great too! A fashion scarf adds that zing to your look.
