Loose Ends Project/Drop-in Knitting and Crochet

The Loose Ends Project matches volunteer handwork finishers with textile projects (knitting, quilting, sewing, etc.) left unfinished due to a maker’s death, illness, or disability. With nearly 37,000 volunteers, the nonprofit fosters community and eases grief by returning completed, cherished items to families. One volunteer says, “I personally had the opportunity to complete a knitted sweater for a woman whose mother was unable to complete it before she passed away. It was a rewarding experience not only to finish something that her mother had started but to be able to give her something to remind her of her mother.”
