This morning, as I sat in my chair and wondered what order I should work on today, as I watch the AFC and NFC football games, it hit me - I have not done any charity crochet in far too long.
So, I decided that for the remainder of 2014, I will make every Sunday, a day that I crochet only charity items. I mostly crochet beanies for cancer patients, and donate them to a cancer center near my hometown. But, I am also going to crochet some squares each Sunday, and make blankets to donate.
Sometime this week, I will make a new tab ^up there^, where I will link to all of my Sunday projects. I hope that I can bring some joy into others lives, and I hope that maybe, some of my fellow hookers will join in on the fun.
Here is the start of my first charity project:
This WIP is a puff stitch child size beanie.
I will also be setting up a button, where others that do not crochet, can donate a small amount, which will be used to help buy yarn, to keep up the Sunday crocheting.
Best Wishes,
Alison
Love your blog as far as your Sunday projects a huge need is for babies in the NICU. The March Of Dimes give to each baby to help keep them warm and it also helps the families with their babies have an identity not just a number. As a Grams to very early twins weiging 2 pounds 1 ounce and 2 pounds 7 ounces this was the one act of kindness we enjoyed as we endured when we had to leave the babies for 2 and 3 months was heartbreaking yet this helped so much. I have made some and taken to the hospital and they welcome the little treasures.
