Two Deliveries in One

The Kaiser oncology department was surprised and thrilled when we delivered 18 chemo hats including 3 fleece hats on 11/15/2019. They said there’s a huge need for them and the patients will be so appreciative!

Also delivered were 43 baby hats to the maternity ward. One of the nurses said that several new Moms asked how they could personally thank us for the hats and she said she would tell us how happy they were to receive them.

Thank you Karing Knitters!

Happy Halloween and more

Many thanks and smiling faces when we delivered 92 baby hats of which 11 are for Halloween, and one Halloween baby sweater (which will be given to the first baby born on Halloween) on October 11, 2019 to Kaiser Walnut Creek.

Many thanks to all of our contributors! The patients love them!

Another Kaiser Delivery

Seventy lucky babies born at Kaiser WC after 9/14/2019 will be the recipients of our adorable baby hats!! As always, the nurses were very appreciative of our donations.

It is that time again - Happy Birthday to Us.  We are now celebrating our 8th birthday and taking an opportunity to pat ourselves on the back.  We have during those 8 years donated

772 scarves

and 

4889 hats.

Well done Karing Knitters!

Another wonderful Kaiser hat delivery!

Our Karing Knitters’ donations were

especially appreciated when they were delivered on 9/4/2019 because a set of twin girls had just been born and the nurse asked if there were any hats for them..in walked one of our members with 105 hats! What a coincidence! She selected two matching hats and the parents were thrilled!

Another Delivery to Kaiser

One at the Karing Knitters stopped at Target before delivering the baby hats to Kaiser Walnut Creek. She spotted a very pregnant gal who was bringing her purchased items to her car and stopped her and asked her if she was going to have her baby at Kaiser Walnut Creek. She said that she was going to have her baby at John Muir but did have her first child at Kaiser. Since the knitter had a whole bag of hats in her car she asked her if she would like one. She’s going to have a boy and so she gave her about 10 hats to select from and she selected one that member Amy made. She was absolutely thrilled and overjoyed that this knitter would stop her and give her baby hat.

On July 19, 2019, Kaiser newborns were the happy recipients of 65 baby hats. As always, the nurses were grateful to receive the hats since we are the only group to make hats for them.

Thank you all for your contributions!

Getting Ready for the 4th of July

Happy 4th of July to the upcoming Kaiser babies! We delivered 14 - 4th of July baby hats plus a themed sweater which will be given to the 1st baby born that day!

Also, we delivered 15 preemie hats and 37 general baby hats. The nurses were so excited to dig through the donations and find the perfect one for the baby they helped deliver! One of the nurses said they sometimes fight over the one they want to distribute!!
