Calling all knitters...

This may seem like a random post, but if you can knit, we need you. My cousin, Jordan, is a teacher in a low-income school in Denver, Colorado. She teaches third grade and has more than a few students who can't even pay for lunches. Last year, she noticed that many of the kids couldn't afford hats, so this year, she's on a mission. She's running a "Knit for Paris" campaign, asking all knitters she knows to contribute a kid's hat, if they can knit one in their spare time. Her goal is to be able to provide every kid in her class with a hand-knit hat. I know some of you knit, so I thought I'd post this to see if we can't get even more hats out to Colorado. If you're interested and willing to knit a hat or two, let me know. If you'd like to see her post, you can visit her blog at http://www.lucysknits.blogspot.com. These hats don't need to be made out of fancy yarn or patterns. They simply need to keep a third grader warm. Oh, and if anyone would like lessons in knitting, let me know. It could be fun to spend a day all knitting together for a great cause! And spread the word. Wouldn't it be great to outfit all of the third grade classes?
