Information

Charity Knitting KAL

We knit 86 caps for The Preemie Project in a single weekend as part of our KIP speed knitting contest. Now this KAL is for knitters who want to keep the good karma flowing and knit for charity all year long.

Recommended yarns for charity knitting...

If you need super soft yarn for cure caps or preemie hats, try Comfy, Simply Cotton, or Shine.

We also have a wide variety of machine washable yarns here.

I'm just adding a couple more threads to get things ready to go. The pattern still won't be announced until 4 our time. :)

We will be knitting in the round, so if you like circs, use those, if you prefer DPN's, that's okay too. You'll have to wait to check gauge.
I'm sorry I can't give you more specifics on the yardage yet. It's tricky giving you enough information to prepare without giving the whole thing away!

Sharon, I think those colors will be beautiful together. I hope it clears up this weekend for you. The following weekend would be a good one for rain. That should help "speed knit"!

Received my yarn yesterday and it is beautiful can't wait to see what we are making, I have shine worsted in wisteria , coral and bachelor button,don't know if I will give away maybe keep for myself.
Still raining here, maybe it will stop by the weekend.

I get mine two days after it leaves Kent, WA. :) Yup that's outside of Seattle. You are correct.

Mine said it would arrive around the 5th and it got here on the 2nd. I get it the day after it leaves Kent, Washington, which I believe is just outside of Seattle, WA.
