Chrocheting for Charity

[LWestbrook]

Hello, my name is Linda, I live in Kansas City and love to crochet. I am in my 70s so my friends and their children have all aged to the point that there is no need for baby items or any more afghans. So I started crocheting for charity. I make adult caps for a local cancer center. They really enjoy them and send lots of appreciative comments. I am always looking for different patterns to give them something different to wear when they want to go out without a wig. I really enjoy this work and hope this community will provide me with different ideas for caps that I do not currently have. I will post pictures of some of my caps at a later time.

Hi Linda: I crochet baby blankets and afghans for Project Linus. These are donated to hospitals, NICU's, boys homes, correction centers etc. In 2014 over 3000 quilts and afghans were donated by our local groups!
