People say that you are never too old to learn new things, and grandpa Ed Moseley is living proof of that.
When this amazing 86-year-old senior citizen found out about his local assisted living facility’s plans to knit tiny wool hats for premature babies he knew he had to be a part of it.
“I’ve never knitted in my life,” Ed told The Inside Edition. But that did not stop this grandfather. Ed reached out to his daughter for help, and she was more than happy to teach him the knitting patterns. Mr. Moseley told that is wasn’t easy and it was a slow start – the first cap took him over three hours to complete, but after some practice, he’d finish them in an hour and a half.
Ed already made more than 50 hats and inspired other residents to help make 300 more in this act of kindness. And he’s not stopping yet! Moseley plans to continue his great work and knit 30 tiny hats for baby care every month.

This brought happy tears to my eyes - what a wonderful person!
Good for grandpa not only is he breaking gender stereotypes (only women knit / sew) and being a mini hero at the same time. This man is such an inspiration.
HATS OFF to you & Lisa! Our world needs kind heroes to inspire & bring true joy to all, from NIC-U babes to sad, stressed-out adults!
You don't see people as nice as him nowadays one of the nicest people i've seen
My mom started a group at church of ladies that do this as well as prayer shalls. They've officially been commissioned by our local hospital and the kaiser hospital to make them for the babies, mothers, and stillborn babies/mothers
