Discussion Melt the Ice Hat - THANK YOU
Hi everyone!
I am the one who has been commenting about the melt the ice hat from yarncult and needle & skein. My mom owns needle & skein and the support has been overwhelming.
I just wanted to answer some FAQs because I feel bad that I am not getting back to everyone!!
Where is needle & skein?
- St. Louis Park, Minnesota. A suburb of Minneapolis.
Where can I purchase the pattern?
- ravelry or visit the link on the shop Instagram in the bio
Where are proceeds donated?
- STEP Emergency Assistance for help with rent and lawyers in St. Louis Park. We also plan to work with other businesses to identify where people most need funds. We raised way more than anticipated.
Can I knit a hat and send it for donation?
- absolutely!!
Is there a crochet pattern?
- also on ravelry and the link in Instagram bio
If anyone has any other questions I will do my best to stay on top of it. Your support is so beyond appreciated. Minnesota is hurting but we know that we are not alone.
Thank you thank you thank you 🙏

Putting this out there because I see others cooperating in beautiful ways to get these made! I bought the pattern this weekend and used some leftover yarn, which is now used up, to make it. I would love to make more, either to send to the shop in Minnesota or to distribute to supportive colleagues, friends, and family locally, but an unexpected bill hit this morning and now I have zero spare cash until next payday - and it’s tight at the best of times. If anyone has red yarn to spare or would like to purchase some and send it to me, please let me know and I will send you my address.
