Founded in 1989 by a single knitter, MIFA's Love Caps Program mobilizes creative volunteers to knit and crochet caps and lap robes for our neighbors in need of warmth and encouragement. Participants of all ages work at their own pace, either individually or in groups, without the burden of deadlines, quotas, dues or required meetings. Everyone is invited to attend events throughout the year and many choose to enter our annual Love Caps contest in the Mid-South Fair.
Program guidelines:
- We use only washable yarn for easy laundering.
- We accept donations of all types of yarn throughout the year.
- MIFA can supply basic patterns, or you may use your own patterns.
- Lap robes may be made with any pattern and should measure approximately 36" x 36".
- Caps may be donated to agencies other than MIFA. Please report the number of items to MIFA so we can add them to the annual total.
