The Woodlands Village craft group swapped their knitting needles for wooden spoons recently, to produce an array of baked goods for Motueka’s hard-working Grandparents Raising Grandchildren.
The 18 lovingly wrapped parcels of gingerbread, chocolate chippies and shortbread are the product of the craft group that regularly gathers at Woodlands Aged Care Facility.
GRG coordinator Rankeilor Arnott says the donations have made the group members feel very special.
The craft group often does knitting for the wider community, delivering slippers to schools, blankets and knee rugs to other members of the care facility, and even creating woollen covers to provide a softer grip for walking frame handles.
