Veterans
Day is this Sunday -- in honor of this holiday, we have a new story
by
Michelle Edwards, who writes about her experiences knitting for
local
veterans and how you can Knit Your Bit. Last week, we featured the
organization Operation Helmetliner, which sends hand-knit and crocheted
helmetliners to U.S. troops abroad. They've had great response to the
story -- so thank you to everyone who has reached out to them so far.
Our
kit sale of the week is the fast and fabulous Speed Demon Scarf,
and
our crochet
block of the week is the "Traditional Star."
Join us
next
week for the third installation of Embellishing Your Socks!
Have a beautiful
weekend!
With
Warmest Regards,
Lion Brand Yarn

A New Story by
Michelle Edwards

|
|
November 10, 2006.
When I started my morning walk, it had been a lovely fall day; sunny
and warm. I knew it would be one of the last. Signs of winter were
everywhere from scavenging deer to barren trees. Still the chilly rain
and darkening sky came as a surprise. I hurried back home, to warm up
and work. Later on in the afternoon, I had planned to participate in a
local Veterans Day knitting event.
I had read about Knit
Your Bit in our local paper, the Iowa City Press Citizen. It was
started by Lauren Hadley at the World War II Museum. She had invited
knitters to once again pick up their needles to provide scarves for
World War II soldiers, now elderly veterans. The scarves would be
distributed at Veteran Administration Centers...
