I admit it, I'm an Internet junkie. On one of my surfings, I came upon the site sponsored by Red Heart Yarns called the Winter Special Olympics Scarf Project. This project has been going on for years, and I didn't know about it, so I was pleased to find a way to share my knitting. I made two scarves and sent them to Idaho just in time to make the deadline. The colors were two shades of blue. The knitting is now underway for the 2012 Winter Special Olympics Scarf Project and information can be found here: http://scarvesforspecialolympics.org/ This year's colors are red and navy blue which lends itself well to a stripe pattern, but if you search this site you will find lovely and imaginative ways people have knit and crocheted scarves for these special kids. Most states have a mailing address, but not California or Oregon, and each state has a goal for scarves contributed. Purl and I have made two scarves so far.
More knitting to come. Today the garden calls. I have plants started in the greenhouse at ECHS ... quite a variety, including lettuce. We'll see how that goes, or grows, I should say. It's a sunny California day predicted to get well past 80 degrees. More later.
