Beanie Hats September is here, so that means… I won’t say Christmas... but Beanie Hat time is nearly here! As you know, Operation Christmas Child like to include knitted Beanie Hats in their Christmas Boxes which are sent for children in a different country each year. The knitters at St. James and friends have always come up trumps and over the years have sent many hats. Can we do the same this year? Please help if you can. If you need a pattern (it is very easy) click on the download button on the right or there will be some in church. Last year the wonderful knitters of Daisy Hill made a record number of over 360 Beanie Hats …. can we increase that this year ? Thank you. St James Church Mission Group
