Take Me Out To The Ballgame...

 Our knitting friend Debbie, from Each Stitch Counts
put together a fun baseball event for us knitters and crocheters - Knit & Pitch.
We went to a minor league baseball game and "knit or crocheted" dishcloths while we watched the game.
Part of the money derived from ticket sales was donated to Debbie's organization.

provides handmade dish cloths and dish soap to food pantries to distribute with food to those in need.



This is Buster the mascot.

Leanne in front, me then Liz.

This guy actually hit the ball.


I think we lost but I'm not sure.
I don't love watching baseball on t.v. but I really enjoy a game like this.
It was so fun and as you probably know, 
they have a lot of different games and events that go on during the game.
They even throw hot dogs to the crowd toward the end of the game.

Many thanks to Debbie, we had a great time, and I hope to knit many more dishcloths at home.

Wow--what a great idea! How fun to be able to enjoy the game on a beautiful day and do something wonderful for the community by making the dishcloths.

Thanks for taking the time to stop by Marmelade Gypsy. It is lovely to "meet" you.
