Knitters without Borders

So...I'm sure that my few readers are already aware of the devastation in Haiti caused by the earthquake last week. I simply couldn't sit by and do nothing, but I wasn't sure what to do. A post from one of my favorite knit bloggers, the Yarn Harlot, put me into action: I donated to Doctors without Borders.

The Yarn Harlot tracks all donations made by knitters; since last Wednesday, the total has gone up by ~$234,000, and all of the donations have yet to be added in.

If you're wondering what you can do to help, donate to doctors without borders. No amount is too big or too small

I'm alive...and knitting

I was gently reminded this morning that I have a blog :)

...but never fear! I have been knitting, but its been in between work, and my new hobby, Roller Derby (I joined Seattle's banked track league, the Tilted Thunder Rail Birds)

This past Saturday, we had a league photoshoot, and I was there, with my knitting!


Yes, I'm supposed to look french - my skater name is Sock Rae Blue! :)
