Hi Everyone: Just wanted to say thank you for all the items you have created already and it's only the middle of January. Today's total for Jan. alone is as follows: burping pads - 2; baby socks - 3 pairs; baby washclothes - 5; stroller blankets - 6; regular sized baby blankets - 2; child's hat - 1; adult toque and mittens set - 1; adult slippers - 5 pairs; scarves - 6 and 1 cowl!

As soon as we can get the items for the Crisis Pregnancy centre tagged, etc. the bag will be donated to them.

Please remember if you use any wool or wool combos - include a note for me to say what the wool content is so that it can be clearly marked.

We have been busy getting ready for a delivery to the Crisis Pregnancy Centre {before Feb. 1st}. It is wonderful to see and hear the enthusiasm of everyone as we work together for the cause. This gives us a great chance to challenge ourselves to try out new yarns and patterns. Also, there is a lot of chatter around the meeting table as we share our stash, ideas and patterns. No matter how you look at it, we have a great time being a part of GIVING HANDS.

A special thanks goes out to Sarah for all her help and generosity!!!
