Tonight my friend Sue and I spent four hours at Ewe-nique Knits in Royal Oak. We joined about 20+ other ladies knitting and munching on delightful desserts for a contribution of $20. Ewe-nique Knits sponsors a local little league hockey team and offered this evening as a way to make a donation to the hockey team so that kids could be outfitted with equipment. I bet they're the only knit shop around that sponsors a hockey team.
Marilyn has a heart of gold and it shows in the many ways she gives back to the community. She also has fundraisers for the local animal shelter and there is a group of knitters that meets at her shop to make charity blankets for the pets who are waiting for their forever home.
I thoroughly enjoyed the Bump Cupcakes that were baked by Marilyn's son-in-law. A variation on the Sanders Bump Cake. I restrained myself and only had one, but I could have easily downed another one, or two....
