Hats 4 Afghans 4 Afghans




Don't you love the versatility of yarn?!  Knitting and crochet can create frivolous and esoteric artistic expressions, or provide essentials for survival. This week I turned my skills toward making some very warm wool hats to be sent to Afghanistan by a wonderful program called Afghans for Afghans.  If you have any extra wool yarn and a bit of time, check it out: http://afghansforafghans.com.  It's an extremely well organized and highly effective aid organization.    The whole war situation is so confusing and sad, especially for the women and children; I love the idea that I can at least help a few of them stay a little warmer.
