Charity Knitting and panic

Ok, I’m panicking, I just found out I need 35-45 scarves for my charity knitting for Christmas, holy cow. I really like knitting and I like giving it away, and since most of my husband’s family want gift cards not handknitted scarves, I try to find alternate homes for them. But 35-45, I’ve got about 9 1/2 finished to date! HOLY   COW.

Anyway I have a very easy one from the new Fons & Porter’s Love of Knitting (not Quilting but Knitting!)  going.  My favorite knitting magazine is Creative Knitting, it always has a couple of patterns easy enough for me, and good gift giving patterns, afghans, scarves, washcloths (now called spa cloths) .

And thank goodness for Lion Brands free patterns.  The internet is so full of patterns and knitters, crocheters and charity projects. But I don’t know about all of them, but I’m in panic mode. And when I can find my camera cord, I’ll download some pics.

Try some knitting blogs while you’re waiting for me to finish a book because I’m knitting, Yarn Harlot is as good as any place to start.
