Back in early September, Sarge contacted me about a soldier who was needing some knitting stuff. He said she was stuck in the sandbox without needles or yarn. Naturally, I could not let this go on, so I put out a call on my podcast, Twitter, Plurk and Ravelry and the donations came in
Yarn
Project bags
Notions and needles
I mailed it all over in 6 boxes (and one person from the UK mailed another box)
After a couple of weeks, I received this photo in an email
Yes, they are happy!!
Since then, they have figured out how to use the ball winder and swift
Given yarn out to others who knit, crochet or want to learn
Have been learning to knit (Or crochet)
and relaxing the best way I know
Thank you to everyone who helped me out with my call for Knitter 911.
I hope these pictures bring you as big a smile as they have brought me
