Millstreet Knit and Natter

This is our Knit & Natter Group making a presentation of blankets to Breda Dyland, Manager of the Kerry Cancer Support Group.

Our Knitters are a group of approx. 10 local Millstreet ladies who meet in Millstreet Library every Wednesday at 2 30 - 4 00 pm. The knitters decided to make blankets for the Kerry Cancer Support Group. This group was established 10 years ago to provide essential transport services to and from Cork to enable Cancer Patients attend appointments to receive treatment. The Kerry Cancer Support Group collect and distribute handcrafted blankets to their service users. They are given as part of a comfort pack when someone travels with them. The blankets are either crocheted or knitted and donated. The Knit and Natter group is a very social and supportive group and very beneficial to all who attend. Everybody is welcome. A presentation was made to Kerry Cancer Support Group on Wednesday 14th June. Breda HylandManager was present on the day to receive the collection of blankets made by Millstreet Library Knit & Natter Group.
