HELPERS REQUIRED TO EITHER KNIT OR SEW OR BOTH - WE NEED YOUR ASSISTANCE

As detailed in our September 2010 newsletter we are now supplying Northamptonshire Sands Memory Boxes to Northampton and Kettering Hospitals. At the moment these boxes contain our always loved, never forgotten verse, 2 teddy bears, a silk snowdrop, a hand and footprint kit, heart shaped candle and votive and the Northamptonshire Sands information leaflet. We would however like to enclose either a baby blanket or an angel pocket in each box.

You will find attached 3 patterns - all supplied courtesy of the ray of hope charity. There are 2 knitting patterns - one for the blanket and an angel pocket and one set of sewing instructions for an angel pocket. We would kindly ask that you knit the blanket in white and the angel pockets can be either white or cream.

Your help in this project would be much appreciated, thank you.

If you have any queries on this please give Viv a call on 07801 811025.
