***************************No special skills or materials are needed to make no sew fleece blankets at this in-person activity. Just bring your patience and a desire to have a good time. The Arlington Rotary Club (https://www.arlingtonrotaryclub.org/) will give you the blanket material and instructions on how to assemble them using only scissors (which we'll provide) and your own knot-tying abilities. When the blankets are completed we'll deliver them for you to AHC (https://www.ahcinc.org/) to be donated to kids in affordable housing in Arlington. A representative of AHC will be be with us to tell you about the impact of your efforts.
This is a kid-friendly project, but does involve scissors, so your supervision of any kid participants is necessary. You can work on a blanket in a group or as an individual.
