Stitches For The Soul

Stitches For The Soul Bringing love, purpose and joy through knitting and crocheting lessons to patients in extended hospital stays.
(1)

The inspiration for Stitches For The Soul came to Peggy from time spent with a friend who was in the hospital for months. "What I saw, for my friend and other patients, were endless hours of boredom. Those hours with nothing to do can eat away at your soul. For me, knitting and crocheting brings a sense of calm, purpose and joy that I would love to share with patients and their families."
