Shana Thornhill, an expert in knitting and crocheting, gave a program at the Feb. 4 Neo-Century Club meeting at Hilltop Manor.

A lace knitting machine was one feature shown as part of the program. Beautiful knitted shawls, berets, and warm, colorful socks were displayed.

Thornhill makes her own yarn from alpaca wool and other sources.

Members each brought three valentines to share with residents at St. Luke’s Living Center and Marion Assisted Living.

The next meeting will be March 4 at Hilltop Manor where Amy Kjellin will make a presentation about Scotland.

The club’s annual home life civic project — fruit baskets for shut-ins — will be discussed and planned.
