We decided to knit and crochet washcloths, bath mitts and scrubbies. These will be packaged with donations of soap and toothpaste and toothbrushes from the Medical Center. They will be given as gifts to people in shelters where the Medical Center employees will do work on the Day of Service. Many of these shelters were recipients of the scarves in 2011. They will also be sent with Medical Center volunteers on Global Health missions, including to the Dominican Republic where cleft palate repairs are done and to a group going to Malawi to assist people with skin conditions from tropical diseases.. This has been fun and a creative way to try new stitches and patterns. This group is amazing in their generosity of time and spirit.
