Kyalami knitters stitch warmth for communities in need
Story 1
Knit and Natter Kyalami is helping keep vulnerable people warm this winter by knitting beanies, scarves and blankets for donation to schools, charity homes and mothers with newborn babies.
The community initiative brings together about 25 volunteers each month to knit while supporting a range of local causes. What started as a project to teach practical knitting skills to young people has grown into a network that combines creativity with community care.
The group says the initiative has also created lasting friendships while making a meaningful difference to those in need.
