Delivery for Easter

Fifteen Easter/Spring baby hats were delivered to Kaiser WC on 3/31 just in time for babies born Easter Sunday. The nurses were delighted and immediately placed some on display for the new parents. Thank you Karing knitters!!

St Patrick's Day Delivery

Peggy delivered 90 baby hats to Kaiser Walnut Creek of which 10 were St. Patrick's Day themed. Of course the nurses were delighted to receive such adorable hats to distribute to proud new parents.

Thank you Karing Knitters and AWC.

Valentines Delivery

Peggy delivered 52 baby hats on Valentine's Day, 2018.  Two of the nurses immediately selected two pink Valentine Day hats for the newborn girls who had just been delivered.  The nurses were as always, so thankful for our donations.

For a Special Little Boy

Thank you, Jan, Barbara(s), Nicole, and Peggy for knitting/crocheting/looming 11  Preemie hats for Jerilyn's grandson who was born at 28 weeks and weighed in at 2.2 pounds.  He's at the UCSF NICU and will probably stay there for 7 more weeks.  We thought the hats would be fun for the babies.  The red hats could be used for a Valentine's Day party.

We Have Been Busy Busy Busy

On January 2, 2017, Ann, one of the Karing Knitters, told us the sad news that her friend was going to have to undergo chemo and asked if we would be interested in donating chemo hats.  We gave her 3 to take to the oncology center and may knit more in the future.

AWC members Mary Ann, and Sandi who also contribute to the Karing Knitters' charities, knitted baby hats for the Kempel quintuplets, 3 boys and 2 girls  born at Kaiser Walnut Creek on 1/11/18.  We also donated two larger hats for the older sisters, 18 months, and 3 years old. 

We also donated an additional 32 general baby hats to some very happy maternity nurses.

Our Holiday Delivery

Knitters, Rita, Harriet and Barbara delivered 75 hats and scarves made by Karing Knitters from both San Ramon and Castro Valley groups to recipients of a food pantry in Hayward. They were delighted to meet the people and see them choose a knitted hat or scarf. It made the delivery personal on both sides. Special thanks to Alex Chun for her contribution of a lovely scarf.

A Helpful Model

At yesterday's meeting of our San Ramon group Harriett was kind enough to try on an unfinished crocheted hat for Jan.  
Thank you Harriett.
