Knitting for Kosova

Knitting for Kosova
The lorry containing shoeboxes and also our blankets arrived safely in Kosova just before Christmas and there is a picture on the board of Jean with
all the boxes of blankets in the temporary warehouse. After all the shoeboxes had been delivered priority then would be to get the blankets transported
to the Smile centre and distributed. There is a huge number of boxes of blankets but the message was that they could never have enough! Thank
you to all those people who are continuing knitting and also for those people buying up wool from charity shops. Another possibility ( and good for recycling!) would be to unpick, wash and reuse any good quality hand knitted garments. If you have anything like this please leave the garment in the vestibule. All the Smile shoeboxes contained a hat, gloves and scarf ( again -see picture on the notice board) and it may be that some people might like to turn their hand to knitting some of these for a change.( squares are still required!) There is pattern on the board and also an example of the finished
garments. Please help yourself to a pattern if you would like one, or use one or your own. Thank you again for all you are doing and please pass on these thanks to any other knitters you know.
