The Elmira Legion Ladies Auxiliary is creating a beautiful Poppy Project for this year's Remembrance period, and we'd love your help!
We're looking for volunteers to knit or crochet poppies that will be attached to netting and displayed at the branch in honour of Remembrance.
What you'll need:
✅Red yarn (as close as possible to the Legion poppy colour)
✅Black yarn for the centre
✅Your knitting needles or crochet hook
Patterns:
✅Crochet Poppy: https://ow.ly/kmp150ZtUJQ
✅Knitted Poppy: https://ow.ly/mOyX50ZtUJP
🗓 Poppy Drop-Off Deadline: October 1
Completed poppies can be returned to the “Poppy Bin” in the club room at the branch, or send us an email to make other arrangements.
Whether you can make one poppy or one hundred, every contribution will help create a meaningful tribute.
Don't have yarn, needles, or a crochet hook? No problem, we can help with supplies! Need more information? Just reach out to [email protected]
Can’t knit or crochet? You can still help attach the poppies to the backing!
Thank you for helping us honour our Veterans and keeping the spirit of Remembrance alive.
Please share this post with your family, friends, knitting groups, and crochet communities to help us make this project a success!
