If you’re looking for a fast and relatively simple project for a baby this is the one for you! The Weekend Baby Blanket from Kalamazoo Knits takes two balls of “Big Ball” and US size 19 needles. Sweet baby Avery was born in September but she didn’t get her blanket until January. Once I started it, it went fast. I don’t think she realized how late her blanket was and she seems to be enjoying it. We have a sample (baby not included!) in the shop so stop in if you’d like to see it up close.
Erica Owens came to Knit Michigan last year, had a great time and was so moved by her experience there that she knew she wanted to do more for KM 2008. Erica has set a fundraising goal of $10,000 and is working dilligently to meet that goal. If Erica raises $10,000 by Feb.1, she’s shaving her head for locks of love! Can you believe it? Erica has scheduled a series of “knit-ins” across the state in order to raise awareness and money. We had a knit-in for her on December 29th and it was lots of fun. If you weren’t able to make the knit-in and would like to help Erica reach her goal, you may drop off your contribution to “…have you any Wool?”.
