12 Hand Knitted Blankets!

The 8th grade class knitted over 170 50-inch strips over the course of 10 classroom days. Only 1 knitted strip was required from each student and any additional strips were extra credit. Over 50% of our students knitted at least 1 extra credit strip. We even received strips from students parents that learned how to knit from their children during this unit! It took 2-45 minute class periods to weave together the strips to make 12-stadium sized blankets. The blankets will be sent out to volunteer parents that will add a crocheted edge around the border before we send them off the Project Linus. Great Effort, 8th grade students!
