Like many good causes, there is a need for money to help them continue. Don't worry this is not a plea for money, although if you want to donate I will take yarn assistance! I continue with my knitting that provides me with the monetary needs to help fuel my charity projects. I have been fortunate so far with selling some knitted items and using a preponderance of coupons to continue my chosen path to help those in need. As April winds to an end, like a skein of yarn, so I finish up my project for Threads of Compassion. I will be sad to see this project end because like other Americans, I love the see the quick fruits of my labor, knitting up scarves is a fast and fruitful project, while the blankets for Project Linus will take longer to see my fruit. Never the less, I have begun collecting yarn to use to knit up blankets for children. I have chosen some great bright colors that I hope will bring comfort and joy to children that have faced trauma.
Blog improvements
I have also been thinking about a logo or icon to be used on this site as well as my business cards that will identify the basic purpose and have decided on a globe with 2 knitting needles going through it. I have begun the preliminary sketches of this logo and image and I hope to have that up soon. I am hoping with this I might collect more followers and others will start to contribute and join me on my crusade to help others through knitting.
I am also taking suggestions for the next round of votes for charities that I will knit for during the months of July & August. I have done some basic research about organizations that accept knitting donations and I know that I have members of the community that would love my contributions but I also love additional input. I have also been considering an expansion to my repertoire by adding crocheting and possibly increasing my production to help more people that need my assistance. Please, I would love some feedback about possibly pursuing this additional tool to help others.
Until next time, same knit time, same knit channel!
