Yesterday we talked about keeping a stash of yarn and/or fabric. I have a pretty good one and have had it for a long time. I use some up and then it seems to replenish itself. (LOL – Magically!)
Last year I learned about an organization, Comfort for Critters, that provides blankets to homeless pets. They rely on volunteers who crochet, knit and sew to donate these blankets. Our local shelter, Humane Society of Warren County is one of their participating organizations.
I have made several blankets to donate. The great thing about doing this is that they don’t require any specific size…they can be for small or large pets. And they don’t have to be any special color or design so you can practice your crochet stitches or try out new ones on these blankets. And anything you donate will be greatly appreciated.
There are plenty of other places where I am sure they would be happy to distribute warm blankets to people who need them locally too like C-CAP and local churches. So bust out some of that stash and do something nice for some pet or person and try learning a new stitch while you are at it.
