Swap yarn, build community.

You've got yarn. You know you've got yarn. You've got so much yarn you no longer have any where to stash it. Yup. That's you.

Time to clear out the closets and sweep off the shelves of all that yarn you bought with the best of intentions but just haven't used. Bring it to the 3rd Annual JP Yarn Swap!
This year the yarn swap is in a new-and-improved location at the Mary Baker Eddy Library. Yeah, it's not JP, but just close your eyes and pretend. Handmade for the Homeless, which takes place at the same time, has graciously offered to share their space, so bring some yarn and/or knit/crochet supplies to trade, then hang out with oodles of crafty folks!

The 2013 JP Yarn Swap
Sunday, June 2, 11am-2pm
The Mary Baker Eddy Library
200 Mass Ave., Boston 02115
next to the Christian Science Plaza

All leftover yarn will be donated to the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute Caps for Kids program, which provides more than 10,000 handmade items per year to needy Boston children.
