A pile of completed sweaters, ready to ship |
I knit sweaters for Knit for Kids , which is a project originally started by Guideposts Magazine to provide handmade sweaters for needy children in our country and around the world.
To keep track of the sweaters I have made and their designs, I write a post as each shipment is ready to be sent off. This also helps me to stay on track toward my goal of knitting 100 sweaters.
These first few posts are about Knit for Kids and charity knitting in general:
Fixing Dropped Stitches in Knitting
Knit for Kids Sweater Chart
Knitting as an Act of Love
Knitting Time, Just Lying There
Adapting a Fair Isle Motif
The rest of the posts are about the sweaters that I have completed and mailed away, and include photos of most of them:
