Charity Crafting Update

So I posted awhile ago about running a charity crafting drive to collect hand-made medical play dolls and PICC line covers for a rehab center in Washington, DC. To date I've sent several PICC line covers to the rehab center.

Result: <3
For many children (and adults) using PICC lines is a frustrating affair, because every time you look at your arm there's a physical reminder of your illness that you also have to keep religiously clean to prevent infection. The Recreation Therapists at the pediatric center help children personalize their PICC line cover with decorations of the child's choosing, so that instead of seeing a physical representation of illness when looking at their arms, kids see something they've helped create.

The rehabilitative center is still desperately in need of medical play dolls of color, as currently their only remaining dolls (which kids use to help act out what a medical procedure will be like) are caucasian-appearing and most of their patients are children of color. It is a problem.

Full details can be found on my first Charity Craft post.

Here's my new *SPECIAL OFFER* with help from a Generous Yarn Donor. If you knit or crochet and lack of yarn is stopping you from participating in the charity drive, I will mail you a ball of yarn suitable for the project you want to embark upon. When you mail a completed item back to me, I will send you more yarn to knit or crochet charity crafts (see above) with assuming that I still have a supply. How's that for a great deal? PM for details.

Also, if you've finished one of the above projects, PM me and I will tell you where to send them.
