World-class speakers. One powerful topic: how knitting transforms lives.
🎙️ Dr. Mia Hobbs - Clinical Psychologist & "Why I Knit" podcast host
🎙️ Carson Demers - Physical Therapist & ergonomics expert
Whether you knit or not, you'll learn about:
Evidence-based wellness strategies
The neuroscience of repetitive, creative activities
How simple tools can provide support during difficult times
Building resilient communities
Since 2010, Project Knitwell has proven that knitting is more than a hobby—it's a lifeline. We've served cancer patients, NICU parents, healthcare workers, women experiencing homelessness, and so many others.
As one NICU mother told us: "Learning to knit with Project Knitwell was a lifeline during that difficult time."
