This is our final newsletter for the year 2021. Though many things might have needled us this year, most of us have tried to laugh and have a good yarn while creating garments for sew many people in our community. Providing for others allowed us to stay hooked on the darn good things in life.

We have been so keen to get back into action at KOGO and it feels like we are almost there! Once again, we gratefully and joyously accept all your handmade donations. We will continue to distribute these items to as many people as we can.

Though being stuck at home can be a good opportunity to knit and create, we are aware that it can feel lonely at times.
