Izzy Dolls named after fallen Canadian solider

Some local knitting enthusiasts are doing their part to help brighten the lives of underprivileged children overseas.
A group of avid knitters have been busy making Izzy Dolls at weekly “knit-along” sessions held at Les Lainages du Petit Mouton, a wool shop in the Pointe-Claire Plaza.
When the hand-sized dolls are completed, they are then given to Health Partners International of Canada (HPIC), who use the small wool toys to help secure the packaging in boxes of medical supplies ship
