Still close knit. These women met two years ago at the CloseKnit Yarn Store. The pandemic sent them outside and later closed the store, but they still knit together on pleasant Tuesday evenings in Ingraham Park behind the Morton Civic Center. From left are Jane Young, Ellen Hummel, Sarina McBride and Lori Grupp. “We make knitting jokes, and we help each other out a lot,” said McBride. “It’s fun because we’re all hilarious.” (Photo by Richard Cahan)
Is there a way to get in touch with these ladies? I would love to meet with them sometime. I have just taken up knitting after a 25 year or more absence so am technically a beginner again. It would be fun to be a part of this group.
