the good yarn


Here is something to make your day.  Knitters around the world are rallying to make sweaters for penguins after an oil spill in New Zealand.  The sweaters help to keep them warm as they recover, and keep them from eating the poisons in their feathers if they try to prune themselves.  Read the full article here.  Do you knit for charity, or donate your time?  Want to knit a penguin sweater?  Instructions are here.  Knitting can be such a force for good!

Happy Friday ~
