Hankering for Yarn

Crocheting for charity

One thing that rings true for many of us crafty people is that we’re giving. Maybe it’s because there’s no way we can use all of the things we make, so we’re happy to gift others!

If you want to gift something and feel good about it, too, consider charities. There are many different charities that need handcrafted items. I usually choose a charity at the beginning of the year and make items throughout. I try and switch it up each year so that I can help different ones.

Baby items are always a hit because they’re small and you can whip them up in no time. If you’re a crocheter who’d like to get involved, consider these charities for babies:

You get to do something you love and help someone at the same time.
