Following the wonderful support we have received knitting for the Mission to Seafarers in recent years we are inviting anyone who would like to knit again to pick up their needles once more. Recently, I have received a request for hats as the distributing centre is very low in stock. As before, I have needles and wool. Also, I have patterns if this helps. 

During 2023, we were able to send the Mission to the Seafarers 90 hats, 18 balaclavas, 29 scarfs and 26 pairs of gloves. I receive letters from the Port Welfare staff of the Mission to Seafarers at South Shields, where the knitted items are now collected to be distributed to seafarers, and from the letters it is obvious how much the seafarers appreciate to be remembered. As always my sincere thanks to our knitters for all the support I receive. Judith
