Love and Comfort for Cancer Patients
Touch the lives of those with cancer with our Charity of the Month: Knots-of-Love
|
|
|
"I have seen the tears of joy when patients are handed a cap made by Knots-of-Love. It puts a smile on my face and wind in my sails," says founder Christine Shively. Knots-of-Love began in 2007 she re-discovered her love of crocheting after a long hiatus. Her friend, a cancer survivor, told her how fantastic a soft hat would have been after a long day of wearing a wig. Shively was drawn to the idea of bringing volunteers, patients, and families together to create joy and inspiration. |

Tip of the Week
Tricks of the trade from customers like you
|
|
|
Join us every week for tips, tricks, and advice shared by customers like you. This week's tip is from Wendy D.: I use a [cleaned out] two-pound coffee can to keep my balls of yarn hair- and debris-free while knitting. I cut holes in the plastic top and use metal rings [grommets] (found in hardware stores) so as to not snag the yarn. Pop in a few balls of my favorite yarn, pull through the holes and ta-da! No hair or lint on my yarn while I am knitting and it is easy to take in the car too! |
