Llanidloes Hospital has been gifted colourful blankets thanks to a busy group of talented knitters from the area.
Sister Sara and Sister Vicky said they were "really impressed and grateful" for the blankets from the 'Made with Llani Love' scheme.
Trudy Davies and Barbara Woosnam, who have run the scheme for many years, paid a visit to Llanidloes Hospital to donate the blankets which have been knitted and crocheted with donated wool.
Trudy said: “The community we live are so kind with their creative skills, support and amazing generosity giving up their time to produce the blankets which are knitted with love."
