I want to take a moment this week to mention a KAL/CAL that Giving Artfully is hosting on Ravelry Giving Artfully Ravelry Group. Sitinee was kind enough to feature our Coats for Kids drive as one of the organizations and you can even win a prize for participating. Be sure to check this out and thank her while you are there!

Great news!
We have started to accumulate "inventory" on baby hats - I have almost 100 that I need to find a "home" for. I will start accepting requests for baby hats now. I can also start accepting requests for adult size hats too since we are very close to our goal for our current project.
Have a great week!
