In summer 2017 a Floyd County Extension Program leader with the support of the Family & Consumer Sciences Program developed and established a knitting club termed “Twisted Stitchers.” The Family & Consumer Sciences program leader started the group out as a general Family & Consumer Sciences specialty group, but eventually turned it into a homemaker group increasing county homemaker membership 16%. The FCS Program leader claims that they have gained new skills, leadership, and ability. She states, “Their ability to continue to learn new skills and be committed to improving their skills. Willingness to help others whenever needed. Learning to use different tools to improve their skills everyone has completed multiple projects.” The group has also started making baby blankets and hats to donate to the local hospital.
