Be a Santa for a Senior Holiday Gift Drive, Toronto, ON

When I'm watching TV, I like to keep my hands busy so I knit small quick projects.

This is the fourth year I've knitted for the Be a Santa for a Senior Holiday Gift Drive program, run by Gwen (she's in my 'hood). Gifts donated go to recipients of the Meals on Wheels program run out of West Neighbourhood House (Ossington/Dundas W). Most of these men and women are over 55 and live alone. 

I knitted 95 hats (79 were the same spiral pattern and 16 were random patterns) with different colours, yarns and weights and 5 scarves, and Gwen picked them up this afternoon.


Cheryl, my line dancing buddy, also contributed ... 10 hats and 7 scarves.
