Knitting may be the new hip hobby, but the National Council of Jewish Women’s KnitWits have been courageously clicking their needles for charity for years by making scarves, sweaters and other cozies for hospital patients all over New York. Nothing’s too morbid for these ladies- they even knit hats and booties for stillbirth babies so their parents don’t have to see them in a hospital gown. If you yearn to yarn for others, the KnitWits are happy to teach you to purl, too.
