Hats...

the pink and purple hat was my trial run crocheting little hats for www.isands.ie (A Little Lifetime Foundation) a charity that provides information and support to bereaved parents and families of babies who have died...

a lot of premature babies born have nothing to wear and these little tiny babies look so small and fragile, as a mother you just want to wrap them up...

A little lifetime foundation will take your knitted, crocheted or sewed, hats blanket, wraps and teddies and send them to hospitals where they will be given to the little-ones who need them...

they will add a card to say who made this for their Angel and this poem ...

Wrapped in Love

In honour of your precious child

We made this little wrap

With caring hands and loving hearts

So comfort might be part.

Knowing it is given

To a baby who has died,

We made each stitch with tender care

And tucked much love inside.

When looking back in days to come

We hope that you will see,

Woven in these pastel threads,

A few brief, precious memories.

im going wool shoping today to get lots of wool in lovely pastel baby colours :o)
