BLANKETS for Charity

I am very proud to be participating in the next charity endeavor of the "Scared Thread Crochet Group" from the Restoration Temple in making Blankets of all sizes to be given to the Baltimore
Rescue Center  

 This is WIP (Work In Progress) This is going to be a baby blanket
38" x 45".  This is one of a few blankets

My work in progress is finally finished . I just finished putting the edge on

Surprisingly this infant crib blanket was difficult to make nor did it take a long time.

For this project I used the yarn called baby cakes that can be purchased at JoAnn Fabric store. I also used an H or 5mm crochet hook.  the entire blanket took 4 skeins of Baby Cakes.

If anyone is interested in the patter you can find it in the publication of "Our Best Baby Afghans." This is a Leisure Arts leaflet #2853.

A Crochet Workshop at given by the "The Sacred Threads" at the Restoration Temple Apostalic Center

This was their first Crochet Workshop and I don't think it will be their last.  There were about 20 participants and everyone was very eager to learn a new craft,

There were three experienced teachers including myself and each one of us instructed a group of women in the art of Crochet.

The completed projects of The Sacred Threads were donated to Nursing Homes, Kindergarten class, Assisted Living Centers, Daycare center and most recent Blankets are being made for  the Baltimore Rescue Center, Karis and is a on going venture.

Octopus was made by the group and were going to hospitals for the preemie units but not all hospitals participated so they were donated to a Daycare Center instead.
