Charitable Textiles

In case you are paying strict attention to this blog's details, Fair Reader, you will have been awaiting the explanation of the phrase, "explorations in the textile...arts" found in the Artist's note.

Almost two years ago, whilst in the midst of a knitting and crocheting frenzy, I produced these utterly soft, utterly tiny newborn caps. I sent them, as instructed, to Caps for Good (look at those thousands of caps in the warehouse!), where I am hoping they were sent from New York to African and Asian nations. Mothers of newborns receive education on newborn care and welfare; the caps are there to provide warmth for the infant.

Small caps for small heads; but I like to imagine that it made a small difference somewhere.
