The Creative Castle

Yesterday, I attended a meeting where they had a speaker (Tommie S.) from "ICross Canada". It is a charitable organization that helps the poor in Africa. One of the programs that they have sends medical supply kits using "Comfort Dolls" to act as packing material during shipment. These dolls are then given out to the poor as well as those children suffering from AIDS. It is a great cause & I would encourage anyone who knits (or crochets) to check this out at: www.icross.ca/

The dolls are very quick & easy to make. The only criteria is that you use tan, brown or black yarn for the face, otherwise the colours & clothing styles are up to you. A written pattern is available on their web site.

More later....... Boop
