What is a hussif?
A hussif (or housewife) is a small sewing kit that rolls up to fit in a pocket. Traditionally
carried by soldiers and sailors.

At this workshop we’ll be assembling 40 hussifs to donate to Mind the Gap a
St Louis charity for distribution on one of their Thursday night outreach dates.
I’m looking for a small group of people to help with this project.
Activities include machine sewing the fabric, a little hand sewing to finish construction, ironing and addition of needles, pins, thread to each one.
Mind the Gap - St. Louis
This homeless outreach effort began operating in 2012 on Thursday nights every week and evolved into a nonprofit organization in 2017. They specialize in face-to-face interaction with displaced individuals in St. Louis and surrounding areas. You can find them and other volunteer groups on the Saint Louis Volunteer Group meetup page. https://mindthegapstl.org/
