What a wonderful thing to do Witzend

Witzend What a wonderful way to use your creative skills. Those knitted dolls will do good, which makes me quite emotional.

Local police used to ask knitting group to supply knitted teddies for when dealing with anxious, stressed, traumatised children. Just realised not had any requests for quite some time now. Think it may be the police officers needing teddies for all the stress they have to cope with!

You are very talented Witzend and I'm sure the twins will bring comfort to those poor children.

They are such a good idea, and very well made, Witzend.

I’m always in awe of the clever people who design the patterns. All Knit for Nowt patterns have been donated for free by the designers.

Witzend you showcase your work but shows how much they are needed to help children and adults in various situations. I know that hand knitted toys help dementia and Alzheimer's patients especially if they are unresponsive to people and don't talk. But they do to the toy.

Thanks, everybody. I do really enjoy knitting and these particular items are very good for using up ‘leftovers’ from my vast stash. Plus of course all these badly needed items are a great excuse for ignoring housework!

It's a wonderful thing that you do*Witzend*.

So sad that these are needed, but I’m sure they’ll be perfect for the job. Well done again, Witzend!

Witzend - not only are you clever, you are also so kind to make these for those abused children 😢

Witzend Wed 09-Apr-25 16:42:01

Aka worry ‘monsters’ for therapists to use in cases of abuse. So sad that they’re needed, but they are. These two have now gone off via Knit for Nowt to ‘work’.
