Students from Sunrise Elementary School recently knitted carseat blankets for the Pediatric Interim Care Center in Kent – a one-of-a-kind, model program that provides specialized, 24-hour care for drug-exposed and medically fragile newborns.
The Knit-Wits, a group of beginning knitters, met Wednesday mornings for an hour before school to create the blankets.
Instructed by Sunrise staff, the club made eight carseat blankets, giving them colorful names, such as Rock-a-bye-baby, Baby Blocks, America the Beautiful, The Banana Blanket, Flower Power, Blueberry Pie, Desert Paintbrush, and Cotton Candy.
The Knit-Wits plan to make infant hats and blankets for the PICC next year.
