Gucia (Wald) Teiblum, a young Polish survivor, knitted herself a sweater in Bergen-Belsen DP camp. Using the unraveled wool of German soldiers' socks, she fashioned a new life and identity for herself.
Gucia Wald, born in Tomaszow Mazowiecki, Poland in 1926 was confined in the ghetto with her parents and siblings. From October 1942 Gucia was on her own, first in a labor camp and ultimately at Auschwitz. In January 1945, Auschwitz prisoners were sent on the infamous death marches and Gucia thus reached the Bergen-Belsen camp, where she was liberated.
