Hurricane Afghanalong Continues

We'll continue with our Afghanalong for hurricane survivors for a while longer. Our friend Rachel confirms our items are still needed—in her town of Ocean Springs, MS, there are still 5000 people living in tents. There are likely many others in other states nearby who are in need as well. Anything warm and handmade you'd like to send, we'll take it. Blankets, hats, wristies, scarves, baby blankets. All sizes. Please put each item in a Ziploc-type bag. If you'd like to write a note to the recipient, please include it in the Ziploc bag. We'll also take donations of postage, shipping or cash to get the stuff to the gulf region.

I'll be sending a shipment on Feb. 8th, then after that, another one will go the first or second week of March. So if you have anything you're working on that's close to bind-off, now is a good time.
Please bring your items to a Knitzilla! meeting, mail them to our mailing address (after the jump).

Thanks again for all that you do for others, whether it's for our project or another one you believe in.
We hope to see you on a Monday knit night!
