My name is Dina McBride and I love yarn! I love color! I love to knit! I love to crochet!
When I was 4 years old my Dad taught me how to crochet. His great-grandmother taught him how. When I was 19 I decided I really wanted to learn how to knit – but there was no one available to teach me – so I got out the encyclopedia and learned.
But more than anyone or anything else I love Jesus. If He can take my skill and love of fiber arts and use it to help others – than I’m in!

Thanks for doing this, Dina. Great way to get info about upcoming events and stay in touch. A tip for new knitters: find discloth patterns online and cotton yarn to practice your skills on a simple, practical project. They are quick and easy to make, and become like samplers of your work.
Hi there! I just read your article in the Beaverton Valley Times. I would love to help. It sounded like you have yarn to spare for the projects and are looking for people with willing hands to knit said yarn, and that’s me! If that’s the case, please send me an email at twelvedaysold@gmail.com. I’d love to help the cause!
Hey Katie! Just sent you an email with the details. Thanks so much for offering – and looking forward to having you partner with us!
I have been knitting hats and scarves that I would
like to donate to the homeless in Beaverton. Would
you let me know where I can drop them off?
Thank you.
Karolyn,
Thank you so much! Fabulous! I’m going to send you an email and let you know about some of the options for drop-off or pick-up. Okay? Bless you!
