Hello Everyone!
It’s the time of the year where we do our annual 10 days of giving pattern blowout! These patterns focus on projects that are quick, easy, and perfect for donating. The weather is getting colder in many parts of the world and this means more homeless and low income individuals will be struggling to find ways to keep themselves and their families warm.
Each day of the 10 days of giving I like to mention different charities and places to donate items to. Today the first day we are going to talk about women’s shelters. The ear warmer we are making today would be very easy to adjust in size for children and adults alike so you could donate sets to give struggling women and their families matching items to help them stay warm and enjoy the holiday season. You can find local women’s shelters by googling women shelters near (the area you live in.) You can also find wish lists for different women escaping domestic abuse by looking through this website. https://www.domesticshelters.org/fundraisers/wish-lists.
This pattern will be available on my Patreon and if you sign up this month or in December you can get all 10 patterns from this month, and all 12 patterns from next month for only $6 a month.
