Knit Your Bit National Service Project

Since its launch in 2006, Knit Your Bit has reached more than 10,000 knitters and crocheters in all 50 states. Through their efforts, the Museum has distributed more than 50,000 scarves to veterans’ centers, hospitals, and service organizations across the country.

• Hand knit or crochet a scarf measuring 4″ – 5″ wide and 48″ – 50″ long.
• Ideally, use size 4 worsted weight yarn, and not bulky yarn, that is also machine washable and dryable.
• Sew in all loose ends.
• Print out the Knit Your Bit label linked here. Each scarf will need a tag. We recommend printing on cardstock since it is sturdier for distribution. Under “Compliments Of,” we recommend using your first name only and perhaps the city and state you live in for security reasons. Feel free to write a personal message on the back of the tag!
