DLHS Teen Knitting Club
I want them to be encouraged and knit together by strong ties of love. . .[|Colossians 2:2]

In 2006, the [|David Lipscomb High School] knitting club was organized by [|Mary Little], HS coordinator for LEP, and [|Dona Howell], HS librarian. That first year we met //[|Ann Shayne]//, co-author of //Mason-Dixon Knitting: the Curious Knitter's Guide: Stories, Patterns, Advice, Opinions, Questions, Answers, Jokes, and Pictures// at a WBNA Book Club meeting at Davis-Kidd here in Nashville, TN. We knitted caps for the [|Save the Children] program and squares for blankets for the [|Warm Up America!] foundation. We also sent a box of scarves that we knitted for college-bound foster youth to the [|Red Scarf Project]. The club's name was originally Chicks with Sticks but was later changed to k2tog ("knit two together"--a knitting term). The bunnies in this picture were knitted by the students and sponsors for the teachers to show our appreciation for all they do. The most lifelike bunny Prince Asparagus Griffy belonged to one of the students.
