Knitting, crocheting, walking and family time.

I've always had a passion for knitting and crochet.  Generally for people with new or young families.  With recent donations to the SCBU - Special Care Babies Unit at Hutt Hospital.  Crocheted blankets and knitted garments.  And also during a recent visit to Nepal, delivering crocheted blankets to a local orphanage.
