The fires in California are a horrific event unfolding before our eyes. Here we are on the East Coast helpless...You may ask...How can we be useful? Let's put our needles together and knit/crochet squares/blankets for these fellow Americans, some who have lost everything. We can wrap them in a hug and blanket.
Here is what one woman is doing...www.sandiegowildfireblankets.blogspot.com/ Check out her blog and you will get the picture.
I am making squares,#8 needles with WW yarn, CO 32 sts, knit to 8", they should be 8" square. I am knitting,collecting from anyone who wants to participate and as with the Daduza Dolls, A Knitter's Garden will pick up the cost to ship them out to Sandie in California. Let's help make a difference...

I'm so excited AKG is "on" the project! I hope to have some squares done for the next time we meet!
Thanks...I have two in the works. I cast on two squares at a time, when you finish one, two are done. I am dedicating 1 hour after dinner each night to knit squares...tonight is night 2...I have to fool myself into completeing projects. Assigning myself by the hour seems to work...nut case I know!!
