(I posted this on my blog too)
So here is what I am going to do: I am going to make blankets and send them to Giving Children Hope for the survivors of the tragic earthquake in Haiti. If you would like to do something similar, they are accepting other material goods besides for blankets such as washcloths and pillows. I have made a little badge that you are welcome to use if you wish. Just copy and paste the code. It will take you to the original post about the earthquake but if you wish to change the link for your own post about this, feel free. Okay? Let's get making!

Great idea!

Wish I knew how to make a blanket other than knitting one (seems a little warm for Haiti)....I wish I could jump on board with this right now- I'm sure it will be comforting for a child to have a handmade blanket.

i second that

maybe you could knit wash cloths or baby caps.
you could use cotton yarn, right? i'm from florida and i know that everyone likes a blanket at night.
