YOUR HANDS CAN KNIT A SMILE ON THE FACE OF A HOMELESS CHILD
NCJW members are putting together kits for children who are homeless; the kits are part of NCJW’s CHANGING THE FACE OF HOMELESSNESS PROJECT. A wonderful addition to the kits is a small doll, which is easy to knit with yarn left over from finished (or unfinished) knitting projects.
Directions are below and although they say for a boy, they really are unisex and very cute. There are only 48 rows, 3 yarn colors plus yarn for the hair, so it is really quick to knit up!
The face can be almost any color, but preferably tan, brown, a pastel, but not white. For hair a frizzy, fuzzy yarn makes it a real winner.
The face details are embroidered on when the knitting is done and before it is closed and stuffed.
