In 2001, Catterns and the marketing department of ABC Local Radio conceived and initiated an event called the KNIT IN. Because she was making scarves for her father and daughter, Catterns had been discussing knitting on her breakfast show. This led to a flood of listener interest, and the KNIT IN went on to become an annual event where the station encourages knitters and crafters to help support the charity Wrap with Love's pledge to provide warm wraps for people suffering from extreme cold.
