Several knitted art creations honoring the men and women who keep America safe and free are on display in Cranberry Township’s Community Park.
The work, created by the Cranberry Yarn Creations group, highlights the branches of the miliary and line the side of Park Road.
For more a decade, the group has stitched thousands of strands to create the colorful display featured during Community Days. Blossoming from 11 initial tree wraps to more than 50 displays, over 100 community volunteers have made their mark on the project.
The group ventured to create the current display in time for Memorial Day, with installation occurring May 22. The creations are on display until June 12.
Volunteers are always needed to carry on this community favorite project. No sewing expertise? No problem! Anyone can be taught the basics of crocheting and knitting. Materials are provided by the Cranberry Township Community Chest.
Help keep the yarn spinning and email fjhoffman@zoominternet.net to get involved.
