Thank you, Awoto Margret! I bought my hat at the Alaska State Fair! It is beautifully crafted. It will be worn and loved a lot during the very long, cold Alaskan winters!

Margaret, I received a very beautiful gift from my son this Holiday made by you. A purple scarf that I will use a lot since I live in th Adirondack Mountains in northern New York up by Canada where the winters are very cold. I am very proud of his purchase since it helps another individual and not a corporation. Thank you it is very lovely, very nice warm and so soft. I wish you all the best.

Thank you, Awoto Margret! The hat you made found its way to California, and found a home with me in 2013. I now live in a cold place, and I wear it almost everyday. Now that I can see the face of the woman who made it, it is more personal. I love it, and will continue to support this organization.

Thank you,
Erik

I received a hat you crocheted from my friend as a Christmas gift this year. It is exceptional in quality and a truly beautiful gift. I enjoyed reading about your dreams, goals and interests. I thank you and hope God blesses you and your family.

Thanks, Awoto. We received a teddy hat from my mother-in-law for our daughter's first birthday. She looks adorable in it and it's softness will surely keep her cozy in the winter here. Thanks for your excellent craftsmanship.

Thank you so much for the beautiful hat. It's so special to met. I bought it at the UC San Diego fair and plan to buy socially-conscious goods more often. I appreciate your hard work!

Dear Awoto:
The hat you crocheted made it to me in Seattle, Washington as a 2015 Christmas gift from my daughter. I’ve worn it nearly everyday this Winter. It is so special to me, knowing that you made it and live in N. Uganda, since I was in Uganda in September 2015! I fell in love with your country and its’ people, and would love to return. My husband and I were with a team of 8 people who helped out at the Galileo School in Bul Kur, outside of Gulu, as well as in other parts of your country. I pray continuously for your country, especially for those in N. Uganda. May God help your dreams to continue to be realized, may your children and family prosper and be happy, and most of all, may God’s love and protection be with you all forever. Much love to you. Karen

Dear Awoto,

5 years ago, I was blessed to receive a beautiful hat knitted by you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Every time I wear it (which is quite often), I think of you and say a prayer for you. You inspire me, and I know you inspire your children and siblings.

Love,
Kara

My husband and I were looking at booths at the Alaska State Fair and your beautiful hat caught my eye. I loved that it was pink and a bonnet style for my granddaughter Melrose. What really urged me to buy it was for the appreciation of the person who made it. Thank you very much and God bless.

Thank you so much for making my beautiful 'the Bella' hat! I have always wanted a hat like this one and when I saw how beautiful this one was, I could not resist. I appreciate you so much! Have a blessed day!

Thank you so much! My navy BRYNN arrived today! I love it and I will definitely order again!

Thank you! I love the hat you made, and will think of you when I wear it! Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!

Ms. Margret,
Thank You for the wonderful hat you made! Mine is a beautiful blue and teal color and it is so soft! I am 14 years old and admire your dedication and love for your family! You have a huge heart and I will keep you and your family in my prayers!

Margret,

I was so excited to receive my perfectly crocheted teal hat. I am thankful I love my Betty! I will spread the word of you amazing handwork! Keep shooting for the moon. It you miss, you will at least land among the stars! Happy New Year!

Thank you so much for making this wonderful beanie. I got it for Christmas and I love it so much! Thank You!

I love the beautiful hat that you crocheted for me. It is so soft and a beautiful teal color, I've been wearing it every day in the cold Chicago weather. You do gorgeous work and I wish you a gorgeous future!

Ms. Awoto Margret--

Your care & compassion are visible in the beautiful crocheted beanie that I purchased! Thank you for your heart and handiwork!

Thank you so much!! I love the scarf you have made it is very beautiful. I knit and crochet too but no where near as well. Your work has made me smile!

Dear Awoto Margret,

Thank you so much for making the hat I just bought in California! It is a beautiful blush (pink) color and I love the pattern you used to make it. It is just cold enough here in California to use it as a warm accent to my winter clothing. I teach young children (6-7 years old) and am a mother of three children. I showed the wonderful hat you made to my children and shared the picture and story of you with my oldest daughter. She is most impressed with your handiwork. My prayers will be with you and your group. Thanks for all your hard work. I pray that God will provide you richly with all you deserve.

I admire you so much! Not only for your dedication but for your strength as well!! You are so beautiful inside and out! Keep wokring hard and being the best that you can be! Again, Thank you!! :) <3

Thank you, Ms Margret. I live in Los Angeles and my wife bought this hat for me for the holiday. It keeps my bald head warm. I love that I know that I'm able to see the person that made it with her own hands. I wish you a long healthy life.

Margret, thank you so much for creating this beautiful hat! I wear it all the time and love the gorgeous pattern and how soft it is. Keep up the excellent work and may God bless you and your family!

My daughter bought me one of the hats you made for Christmas. It is a very thoughtful and loving gift. I pray for many blessings for you and your family. God Bless!

Dear Margret,

I received one of your beautiful headbands for Christmas from my aunt. I opened the package and saw a lovely cream-colored headband with a flower on the top of it. It brought a smile to my face on this holiday season. Thank you so much for the effort and love you put into making this. I plan to wear it for many cold winters to come!

Sincerely,
Rachel Anne Ivy

Thank you so much! I love my hat and I hope the best for you and your family. God bless :)

Awoto Margret,
I just wanted to say thank you SO much for making this hat for me! This hat means more to me than any other hat I have ever used. Living in Vermont, winter can get pretty cold and this hat has kept me warm all last winter and will this winter too! Thank you so much and I hope to buy another one of your hats for this winter! I really appreciate all that you do and it was really great to see the woman who made this for me! I love this organization!!

Thank you so much Margaret for my wonderful hat! It is my new favourite beanie! I take such good care of it and show everyone, your name and tell them exactly who made it!

Dear Awoto Margret,
Hello, my name is Lauren Petty, I was so thrilled when after I bought my black hat I learned about KKU and what meaningful work they are doing. It is so exciting to know I can have a small part in this project by having bought your beautiful hat (which everyone keeps complimenting), and I smiled hugely when I saw your picture here on the Krochet Kids website, you are a gorgeous and inspiring woman. I want you to know that I am a young artist, primarily a painter, and you have inspired me to make artwork that hopefully I can share with lots of people the way you do your crocheted hats. Thank you for making my wonderful beanie, and I would love to hear back from you if thats possible, I adore having pen pals in different places around the world!

Thank you Margret so much for my hat. I love it and I thank you for the work you do. You are an amazing woman.

You are beautiful, and so is my new hat! Thank you for keeping me warm this Christmas. Peace and Love to you!

Thank you so much for making my lovely hat. It warms me even more knowing that it has helped you get that much closer to providing for your family and reaching your dreams.
Getting to actually see you and your beautiful smile on the Krochet Kids website makes it even more special.

Much love.

Dear Ms. Margret,
I am absolutely in love with this hat that you made. You are extremely gifted and talented and I pray that you realize how much your story touched me. I hope that you continue following your dream and that it comes true! God Bless and thank you for the beautiful hat. I pray many blessings on you and your family for now and generations to come! :)

Awoto,
Today I was shopping at Newbury Comics in Boston MA and came across a display of these beautiful hats. I bought a white one that is so beautiful, one made by you! I think what you are doing is great. And i'm glad I am able to help you support your family and make your dreams come true. Best wishes to you and your family.
I'll be thinking of you every time I wear my hat.

I am so honored to be wearing one of the hats you made. Thank you for creating such a beautiful hat that will now keep me very warm as I live in a cold climate. I purchased it this last weekend at the Justice Conference in Portland, Oregon, USA. Thanks again and may God bless you in every way as you pursue Him and pursue your dreams.

Thank you so much! Whenever I wear this I will be thinking of you! Follow your dreams, no matter what happens!

No more than 10 minutes ago, I received a hat that was made by you as a birthday present! I immediately searched for you and I just want to personally thank you so much for putting so much effort and love into making this hat. Knowing that a hard working woman who is trying to support her family made this makes it even more special. I admire you and support everything that you are doing. I can't wait to wear my hat. In fact, Im going to wear it tonight and tell everyone they need to buy one! I pray that God blesses your life in many ways as possible. Keep focusing on your goals because with hard work they can be accomplished. Thanks again!

Peace, love, and blessings,
Chelsie

Dear Awoto Margret,

I received my hat, the Barney, yesterday, September 20, 2011, and I wore it all day the next day. It fits comfortably and it looks great! Thank you for making it and I hope you continue to be blessed by God through the ministry of Krochet Kids.

Dear Awoto Margret,
I'm a teenage boy from Minnesota, a cold part of the U.S., and I heard about KKU from a friend of mine. I have to admit, I originally purchased the 5207.5 because I really liked it as a product, but when I learned about the women behind the hats, I was overjoyed to know my money was going toward helping them. Thank you so much for the hat, it's perfect! May God bless you in all that you do. I'll be praying for you and your family.

Dear Awoto Margret,
HI! My name is Tiffany, and I'm 16. I heard about KKU through a comercial while I was watching my favorite show, and i knew I just had to buy a hat. I wanted to say thank you so, so much for making me such a beautiful cap! It's a taupey beige Lucille, and it's perfect. I'll be wearing it a lot this winter, and every time I do I'll think of you and your family. I hope your dream of getting a plot of land comes true! Good luck to you and your kids, I'll keep you guys in my prayers(: Again, thank you so much!
Love,
Tiffany, 16

You are so beatiful!! thanks for the hat!!!

Dear Awoto Margret,

Today I went shopping. I don't go shopping often, because I don't have the money.
I saw these hats, and although I didn't have a lot in my wallet, I had just enough to buy a rose colored hat.

I want to say thank you...it's gorgeous. I wish there was more that I can do...I also support Invisible Children in the fight to stop Joseph Kony and his Lords Resistance Army of children. Everyday, I think about the Ugandan people and how strong you are.
One day I hope to go to Uganda to see and help as much as possible. So maybe I'll see you one day :)
Thank You,
Anna <3

I bought my hat from Kohl the other day and love it! Thank you so much for your great work, I will think of you and pray for you whenever I see it.
Blessings,

Lamentations 3 :21-24
this i recall to my mind, therefore I have hope. the Lord's loving kindness indeed never cease, for His compassions never fail. They are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness. "The Lord is my portion," says my soul, "Therefore I have hope in Him."

I just bought one of the hats you made! I love it! Thank you so much.
