[CENTER][SIZE=4]Anybody want to knit something [/SIZE]
[SIZE=4][U]QUICKLY[/U] for charity?[/SIZE]
[B][COLOR=red]I CHALLENGE you to join me in making one or two items, and mail it to be received before the July 1 deadline!!![/COLOR][/B][/CENTER]
The Dulaan Project needs WARM knitted clothing for Mongolia’s impoverished people. In the wintertime, it gets to 40 degrees BELOW zero in that area.
The deadline for them to receive your knitted item is JULY 1ST!!!
[CENTER][COLOR=red][U][B]That gives you a couple weeks to make something.[/B][/U][/COLOR][/CENTER]
Their most urgent need right now is for [B]ADULT[/B] sized clothing.
(Hats, Sweaters, Mittens, Scarves, Gloves, Socks, Neck Gaiters.)
Here is the address to mail your items:
[B]The Dulaan Project[/B]
[B]F.I.R.E.[/B]
[B]107 N. San Francisco St., Studio 4[/B]
[B]Flagstaff, AZ 86001[/B]
This would be a great way to make use of some hand-knitted items that don’t fit properly. Give it to those that NEED it!
[COLOR=blue][B]I plan on sending a sweater I made that was too small for me. [/B][/COLOR][COLOR=blue][B]I’m also sending the alpaca neck-warmer I made. And I’m knitting a couple hats and a scarf to send as well.[/B][/COLOR]
I can’t help myself… I’ll take the challenge! :cheering: I enjoy knitting for charity so this is good. I will see what yarn I can use from my stash. Can’t wait to get started!
Do you think hats done on a loom would be acceptable? Because if they are, I could get my daughter to pitch in. She won’t let me teach her to knit, but the looms are super easy.
I’ve already got some stuff finished (need to sort & box, now that it’s been washed/blocked). And I wound 2 skeins this afternoon, so I’ll come up with a couple more hats (or something) to send.
