    Description

    Comfort & Care Blankets

    How to Make Your Blanket:

    Purchase 1.5 yards of fleece in any color or pattern.

    Cut a 3-inch square out of each corner.

    Along all the sides cut fringe strips about 1 inch wide and 3 inches long.

    Take two fringe strips next to each other and tie them together in a secure knot.

    Repeat all the way around.

    Shipping or Drop-Off:

    When your blanket is finished, put it in a box: If you live nearby, you can drop it off. Please email us a date when you plan to drop it off, and just leave it at the front door of the house. After we receive your blanket, we will steam-treat it to help kill any bacteria and stitch on a "The C.A.R.E. Group" patch before it is donated to local hospitals, shelters, and community programs that serve children and families in need. We’ll also send you a digital volunteer hours certificate as a thank you. If you have any questions, please email us at contactthec.a.r.e.group@gmail.com.
