The Bag Lady of York, SC

98-year-old Flossie Matthews, who lives in a nursing home but still crochets strips of plastic bag into useful objects, such as hats and doormats.

Really great human-interest story; the sort of person who would appear on the old Tonight Show when Johnny Carson was host, usually closing out the last five minutes of the show.

Here's a pic of Flossie, wearing a hat she made herself:
