Southborough – The Pilgrim Congregational Church's Prayer Shawl Ministry is participating in the Marathon Scarf Project to knit blue and yellow scarves for the runners.

“One of our members heard about the [project] and notified our ardent group of knitters and crocheters,” said group member Sheryn Carew.

The group has already delivered 88 scarves to the Old South Church, 38 of those from the women in the Ragfa Prayer Shawl Ministry of St. John's Church in Worcester.

“I also know that there are several of us who have more scarves on our needles,” Carew said. “I wouldn’t be surprised if we came close to the 100 mark. It is an amazing undertaking for Old South Church and [we] are proud and thrilled to be a part of it.”
