Needles busy - hearts open...

Caps for KOL

Monday is a great day to get organized.

Today is a beautiful snow day here in Maryland and the perfect time to bag up some hand knit caps for Knots of Love.  Just a little reminder with the approach of warmer weather that knitting charities are still busy working for others all year round.  I urge you to keep your needles and hooks busy as these charities rely on our skills to make items for so many in need.  

Needles busy - hearts open.  Sounds like a winning combination to me.

ANNIE GET YOUR KNIT

Keychain by Annie Adams

Visit the site for true color of item (silver) and description.

This is one of the latest from Annie Adams that I picked up at StitchesEast. It was one of those - must have buys for me. It makes a super gift for yourself or for anyone in your life who knits. It's lightweight but chunky at the same time. I left it in the package to take a pic for you - after this blog, I'm ripping it open and putting my keys and maybe a few decorative stitch markers on it and voila - presto -abrakadabra, and maybe a shazaam! you're ready to show your knit luv to the world.

Ok, knit me down a bit - I'm way to excited about this gem.

KAL is still on through the holiday season and I will be announcing another one in January after the madness of the holiday is over and we're all working off the bloats. So do knit or crochet for Scarves from the Heart or the earlier KAL Knots-of-Love. Your handywork and creativity is always welcome. Send pics to knit1fortheroad@gmail.com if you like, and I will post them in the reader gallery on Knit1fortheroad.com and share the love. I've been adding new links and videos often so do take advantage of the knitting roadside assistance.

Thanks to all of you who have bought Knit 1 for the Road (book), patterns and kits. I seriously HRT you and hope they give you many happy knitting hours. The road trip continues...
