Each month, we feature a charity that is helping people through knitting and crochet. This month's charity is Binky Patrol.

Susan Finch founded Binky Patrol when she realized the need for a charity flexible enough to fit busy schedules. With just 5 volunteers and fabric remnants from a local framing shop, Finch's group began working with no quotas, no training, and no schedule. Soon they were donating handmade baby blankets (binkies) to local hospitals, women's shelters, and police departments. Click to read more.

Our favorite yarncrafter finds an unusual usage for cozies.
