The Knit and Natter group has made another generous donation to the neonatal department of the Malaga maternity hospital.

More than 700 handmade baby garments were handed over to hospital staff during a presentation that was held in the Gelato & Mare ice cream parlour in Los Boliches last Thursday.

A selection of handmade blankets and covers, bonnets, boots and jumpers had been knitted and crocheted by the Los Boliches based group; many of whom were also present at the hand over.

Since forming in 2009, the Knit and Natter group has donated thousands of handmade garments to the maternity hospital. The clothes are used for the newborn babies of underprivileged families, especially those born prematurely.

A representative from the hospital said, "We are very grateful to the knitters for their generous donation. These garments will help families in difficult situations."

Helen Ulfseth, the group's spokesperson, thanked all the knitters for their tireless commitment.
