Field Work

On Thursday I went and talked to Ms. Stephens to see if I would be able to use red, white, and blue yarn that I knew she had. She gave me three balls of the yarn, I have started making a hat out of it and in the meantime made another hat. Ms. Stephens is not the only mentor I plan on having, I have been in contact with a nurse from St. Luke's who provided me with great information about how many hats the tend to get each month (which was a lot more than I was thinking). I also have a friend who got me into crocheting that could also be a mentor. When I went to donate a few of the hats that I had already made I was surprised at how easy it was to give them to the hospital. The nurses at the front desk were able to give me some feedback for the next hats that I donate, they want me to make them a little bit longer and they also asked me to work on Fourth of July themed hats for the babies. I also found out that I might not be able to get pictures of the babies wearing the hats that I made because they are usually always with their parents.
