For 18 years, Linda Williams of Country Knitting of Maine has sponsored and organized a very successful hat contest for her local community. For 2023, she is again asking machine knitters to participate.

The hats can be hand knit, machine knit, crocheted, whatever method you like, using any machine-washable materials that will keep the recipients warm.
