Our Second August

It is hard to believe that our little project has turned one year old! These blankets have brought joy and comfort to so many, all thanks to your hard work and dedication.

And we're not resting on our laurels - or taking any stinkin' summer break! The awesome Northeast Knitting Group continues to come up with great ideas for new blankets.

We've got three new blankets: Seaglass (formerly She Who Is Not Named) being started by justbeth, Lemonade started by sugarmagknowya, and Lovely started by Spikey.

Well done, team! You should all feel proud of what your donation of time, materials, and love has created.

Fondly,
Spikey
