The power of knitting blogs

Time flies and it’s already the second month of 2007. I hadn’t been checking the Red Scarf Project 2007 blog for a while, but realized the OFA must be busy getting the care packages ready for St. Valentine’s Day, and clicked to see what was going on at the knit along site. It turns out they got more than 7,000 scarves, way more than their goal of 2,500! It’s so nice to know there will be thousands of foster kids getting a hand-knit scarf on Valentine’s Day.
There was an article in a New Hampshire newspaper:

“hand-knitted scarves from all across the country and from as far away as Australia, Japan, and Turkey.” --- wow, I guess this means my scarf got there on time!
