More and more people were taught to crochet and hats sells have continued to support these families. The project was also initiated in Peru and currently there are plans to initiate the project here in the United States.
Hat styles are changed seasonally to have fun fresh looks and presumably to help sales. Hats are named after the person who designs them, I believe most of the hats pictured are called Thomas Hats (the ones with ear tabs and ties), the others are Betty hats (basic cap style). If you click to enlarge the picture you'll see their logo sewn onto the hats which is 2 K's. Their blog and webpage indicate the name of the person making the hat is put on a label and sewn into the hat. I think most of these hats have a number with the KK label that perhaps indicates who made them. They had items in the warehouse they wanted to pass on, and so contacted me to ask if we could accept a donation and put it to good use. My answer, an excited...INDEED!
I've added links above to first their facebook page, and secondly to their blog, please feel free to check out the program.
Thank you KrochetKids International for this thoughtful donation, and best of luck to you with your wonderful projects.
