This woman is absoultely amazing.

89 year-old Maisie Green hand knitted 450 coats and blankets for shelter dogs in her area. The dogs were held at Dogs Trust, a 127-year-old charity that works to find homes for dogs throughout the UK.

This year, Maisie decided to help the pups out in her spare time. It takes her three days to knit a doggy blanket and one day to make a coat, and Maisie says she does it while she's watching television. It's taken a few years for Maisie to knit all the sweaters and coats but boy was it worth it.
