Knots Of Love

Have you heard of this wonderful charity Knots of Love?  Most of us can whip up a cap or two in an evening.  So many caps are needed – caps for kids, for women, for men – who have lost their hair due to medical conditions or treatments.

Here is a video you can watch – and if you vote for Knots of Love here, you might help them win more grant money.  The video is very informative.  You can see how hard the volunteers work to move the donated caps to the people who need to wear them.

This is one we can all participate in.  I know a lot of my readers already crochet caps for various charities.  This one would be a great one to add to your list.  Each One Make One.  Sound good?  It will make you feel good too!
