As we wrap up Lapghans for Charity for this year, I just want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart. This event was about generosity, compassion, and using our crochet skills to bring comfort to someone who truly needs it.
Thank you for showing up each day, supporting the featured designers, sharing the event, and most importantly, stitching with purpose. Every lapghan made has the potential to warm someone sitting in a nursing home, recovering in a hospital, or simply needing a little extra care.
I’m so proud of this community. You continually prove that crochet is more than a hobby. It’s a way to give back, to connect, and to spread kindness one stitch at a time.
Thanks so much for visiting and your continued support! Come again real soon.
I crochet blankets for the Veterans Home. When I have 5 or more I deliver the blankets, it is a joy to see the Nurses give the blanket to the Veterans.
Wonderful! Thank you for all your hard work!
Where are u located? I’m in California.
Hi Yolanda,
I’m in Ohio.
My blankets are for Piedmont Hospital.I have been doing this for at least 5 years.
Wonderful. Thank you so much Judy!
I crochet shawls, blankets and lapghans for church, Warm Up America, a local hospice residence and the local VA hospital.. These patterns will make lovely new lapghans for all! Thanks so much for doing this great event.
My pleasure Amy! Thank you for donating!
I joined a few days late, (Feb 4th) received email to confirm my email but have not received any other “reminder” emails of new patterns (and nothing in my spam mail neither)

I also make lapghans for the local hospital and it is so nice to know that they are appreciated
That’s wonderful Nola! I’m sure they are very appreciated.
Hi, So sorry I accidently clicked the bar for deleting, I would love to join this Charity. I usually join the charity for hats for kids but I would love to be involved in this one. I recently have been diagnosed with inoperable cancer so my heart goes out to anyone suffering from any illness. Thank you for the opportunity.
Ivy Sistrunk
Hi Ivy,
I will add you to the newsletter. Thank you for making hats for kids. Hugs to you.
My prayers go out to you Ivy. Thank you for thinking of others while you are going through so much.
I can’t find the code to get the discount on last lapagan. Been watching for it. Now it’s here but can’t find discount code.
Some of the blanket patterns are direct download, so if you don’t see a coupon code listed, that would be the case. Happy crocheting!
Thank you so much for sharing these wonderful patterns! I am in a yarn group (knit and crochet) and we make blankets for charity (Veteran’s, Homeless, Elder Care, etc.). It’s always nice to find something different to make and something special to donate.
Thank you for all you do to bring comfort and care Kim! Yes, all the blankets were beautiful! The designers did a fantastic job.
Thank you for all of the work and passion put into creating the patterns and this event. I make baby blankets and give them those in need.
Thank you Michelle! All of the designers did a fabulous job creating beautiful and unique blankets!
