The ladies from Gosford Wyoming Uniting Church, and their friends and family, have been busy knitting for the organisation Aussies Knitting for War Affected Kids (AKWAK) once again.
Spokesperson Nancy Axe said the pure wool items knitted for children and teenagers in displaced persons camps in Syria were a wonderful example of God’s love for others.
“The people there are very thankful and a little bit stunned to think that Christians from Australia would knit for them,” she said.
During the past year, the group has produced 11 baby rugs, 17 pairs of mittens, 24 scarves, 30 jumpers and cardigans, 13 teddies, three pairs of bed socks and 112 beanies for the cause.
