An 89-year-old dog lover from Basildon, has knit 450 coats and blankets for puppies at a Dogs Trust shelter.
According to the organisation, Maisie Green has been knitting sweaters and blankets by hand for years – and all her handiwork goes to support dogs. So far, she is reaching the 500 mark.
Dogs Trust has shared the kind-heartedness with its Instagram followers.
“I love knitting and I love dogs, so this combines both wonderfully. It takes me three days to knit a blanket and one day to knit a doggy coat.
“It keeps me busy and often I like to knit whilst watching television.
“I’m delighted to be helping the four-legged residents at the centre in some way,” Mrs Green told the Basildon, Canvey and Southend Echo.
