Contact: Barb Heytmeijer

Our chapter engages in needle-craft projects that will benefit members of our community. Some suggested projects are Beanies or Nursery Bonnets for new-borns; Infant Booties and/or Layettes, and Prayer or Comfort Shawls for the elderly. Items may be either knitted or crocheted.

If you like to make layette items, select a pattern of your choice from the many available in knitting departments at our local shops. Shawl Ministry has instructions for shawls.

Beanies may be donated to any hospital; shawls to a nursing home of your choice. Layette items can be donated to agencies such as the Pregnancy Resource Center.

If you prefer to embroider, we have lovely patterns to give to new homeowners through the Habitat for Humanity program. Contact the Habitat in your community. If you need help in where to donate your articles, contact Barb.
