If you're interested in helping, there are three things you can do:
1) (No skill needed:) Save clean, white, plastic grocery bags between now and January 31. You can drop them off at the Downtowners office.
And/or . . .
2) (Very little skill needed) Attend this "plarn party" at the office on February 3rd to fold and cut bags and twist them into "plarn balls" ready for crocheting.
3. (Beginner skill plus large crochet hook needed) On your own time, use plarn balls to crochet a mat. Or two. By mid-March.
