The Scarf Project

Here are some of the scarves I knitted for our scarf project. A friend of mine who just recently learned to knit decided it would be fun to make 18 scarves to give to a group of mentally challenged adults whom she sees at her psychotherapist's office. I provided 10 scarves and some stocking caps, and she and her mother did the rest. They are going to tie a ribbon around each one with a Merry Christmas tag.











Although, due to medical confidentiality laws, she can't hand them out in person, she is looking forward to seeing the recipients wearing them. We're interested to know who will pick which colors/styles.

Partly it was therapy for my friend's daughter, so they were surprised when people couldn't understand why they didn't just go buy a bunch of scarves.

They are all beautiful although the second from the bottom is my favourite - I think you did show a photo of it when you completed it, it's lovely

Wonderful idea!

I've heard of people undertaking these projects but they got overwhelmed by the quantity required. In case we couldn't get enough made, I'd recruited some backup helpers, but didn't need them.

See Buddy the Cat there 'helping' with the pictures? He's in the first one.

what a wonderful idea.Are some of those for sale?I liked them all but the blue one is my favorites.I matter of fact I like them all.
comment by fredo on Nov 26, 2010 3:38 PM ()
No, not for sale. When I get done with this sweater that I'm working on now I might make some more scarves, maybe one for you, sweet Fredo.
