Kids make scarves for Knots of Love

Hey parents, have you ever seen the face of a someone going through chemo who receives a hand-made gift of love from a stranger?

Well, I have and I can tell you it is the greatest feeling in the world. You and I are the strangers and there are millions of people going through chemo who can benefit from a hand knitted or crocheted scarf or hat. The recipients get a great deal of joy and satisfaction when they receive the scarf or hat and you and your kids will get a feeling that you will never forget.

Knots of LoveĀ has created an offshoot so our kids and grandkids can experience this unbelievable joy. Knitting or crocheting caps can be a challenge for youngsters who may not have the concentration or manual dexterity needed to make caps. Thatā€™s why theĀ Knots of LoveĀ Kids program is focused on scarves.

This is also a great way for our children to develop a sense of giving to those who are less fortunate which is a great way for you to establish a lifelong legacy for your kids.

ā€¢ Junior high and high school groups
