Warm Hearts

2009 donations
Locally, there is a current need for cozy clothing items, specifically adult hats, mittens and twin-bed-size blankets. 
Purchased items and/or handmade items are being collected at the library.
Many hands make light work and together we can make a difference. For the past two years our library patrons have been very generous with their time and talent, so let's do it again! Use your knitting skills to warm community members who could use something special. Your donations will be distributed by the Newark-Wayne Community Hospital to the residents of 1 South.
Any favorite pattern will do, but if you are looking for ideas here are simple patterns, perfect for beginners:
