CROCHETING CAPS FOR KNOTS OF LOVE

Making hats or caps - usually by Crocheting and sometimes by Knitting - is something I have done on and off since I was a teenager.

So, when I found out about Knots of Love, http://www.knots-of-love.org/ , it was natural that I would make some caps for them.

Knots of Love donates hats to Cancer patients who are on chemotherapy or some kind of infusion treatment -- or other patients with some life-threatening disease -- who would like caps.

How the founder of Knots of Love, Christine Shively, started it all is here: http://www.knots-of-love.org/mylink.php?id=2573

Here are some Testimonials from the patients, or nurses of patients, who have received caps from Knots of Love: http://www.knots-of-love.org/mylink.php?id=3575

So, I have jumped on the band wagon and last Thursday I mailed off a bag of 3 crocheted caps to Knots of Love! Here they are:

It was joy to put in the time making them - seamless and made in soft yarns, I hope some patients enjoy them!!

I plan to make more. I've acutally already started my next one!

Thank You to Christine Shively for putting this together and organizing it and making it happen!

DONATING BABY HATS - AND A FEW OTHER THINGS

I made a donation to an Annual Clothing Giveaway that is going on today - I mailed them a box of clothing, some of which were the hats for babies and older kids that are in this picture:







I really enjoy making them and it is something that can be worked up quickly. And it feels good to do something that may really help someone.



In the colder months, there may be children who need head coverings who can't get them.

I plan to make a donation to this Annual Clothing Giveaway every year.
