Introduction to Family and Consumer Science students learn how to crochet as a part of the textiles unit. Before beginning their individual projects, they complete a sample square while learning a chain stitch, single stitch, double stitch, and how to turn corners. In the past, these squares were graded and then discarded. This year, Mrs. Foster and her students crocheted the squares together to make a blanket that will be donated to the Knox County Humane Society. #StreaksNation
