Hankering for Yarn

Knitted Compassion-Knots of Love Contest

I just posted about the  crocheted compassion cap Knots of Love kit  that Laurel Hill is kindly donating to one of the  readers of Hankering for Yarn.

compassionate-knitting-1 And, now I am pleased to offer a second contest, courtesy of

Knots of Love and Laurel Hill.

This contest is for a compassionate knitter.

The prize is one of Laurel Hill’s

knitted compassion cap kits

How do you win?

Simple, post a comment, telling me to  whom you would donate  the compassion cap that you will knit from this kit.

The contest begins now and closes on March 17th.

It is open to citizens of Canada and the United States.

    I would bring the cap to my personal physician… he is the immediate past President of the American Cancer Society… the 1st family physician to have that title! He spends part of every day visiting various cancer treatment centers in our area and often takes donations of prayer shawls, lapghans, and chemo caps with him to give to the patients during his visits…he’s an amazing guy who is really passionate about good/compassionate care for cancer patients & support for their caregivers. I only wish I would have known him back when I lost my own mother & mother-in-law to the scourge of breast cancer…

  11. Barbara says:

    Beaumont military hospital is a large hospital for soldiers and their family and veterans and their dependents. There is a need for chemo caps there. I would make a chemo cap for Beaumont cancer unit and I would ask my crocheting friends to do the same.

    A little boy in my church was just diagnosed with leukemia and I am reminded of when my daughter’s friend had leukemia at the age of 11 and my daughter was diagnosed with a spinal tumour shortly after that. Both of the girls are doing well, healthy beautiful young adults and I would donate the hat to the Children’s Hospital that has helped them all, Children’s Hospital Of Western Ontario, LHSC, London ON Canada.
