Crochet Charity Crochet Pattern Ideas
When I think of charity, my mind doesn’t automatically go to the human side of giving. I’m a lover of animals whether they be domestic or wildlife. Hi everyone, I’m Laura Jean, The Crochet Crowd Seeker. Mikey charged me with the mission to follow my passion to find patterns that can be for humans and animals alike.
Mikey and Diva Dan were sharing with me the day they took their Riverstone into the vet, there was another cat in the next kennel that looked like death. It was shared to them that the owner of the cat had died but the cat was also really sick. So the family took the cat to the vet to see if they can make the cat more comfortable with medications. It had a blanket in the cage. They conveyed how heart breaking it was to witness. The cat in the picture isn’t the same cat. You heart just wants to save a life, whether it be human or be the unsung heroes such as our cats and dogs. They know their lives wouldn’t be the same without Riverstone’s mind games and antics.
With Charity beginning at home – and home was 22 miles out near the middle of nowhere, we did have neighbors and it happened to our neighbors – it happened to us. You helped, you brought in food, and offered your services. As a young Girl Scout living on a farm – I learned to “think global – act local.” So now – my local – is what is near and dear to my heart. The Charity Locator Map has helped me to find those charities.

Thank you for all of these wonderful patterns. I’m wanting to make the cat mats and beds. I see it says to use any 4ply worsted weight yarn. I’m trying to figure out which yarn to use. Would you think a cotton? Or something more soft? Do you have any ideas and brands you suggest? Thank you!
Bernat Super Value or Caron One Pounders are good choices for pets.
Thank you for your help! ?
