47: Chapter 9-10 - A Tale of Two Cities

I've cleaned up the craft room! Can I get an "Amen"? And I've got more Chip for you today! And I've got a lot of cooking to do! Good thing that deadline is past! We weigh in on Mdm. DeF's knitting choices, Cast on for Kenya, and generally enjoy some more Dickens! NOTE: There may be the same problem with this week's file. Try downloading again...sorry! The Kenya Info: HIV positive children in Kenya need blankets to keep them warm at night and to keep fever at bay, and also simply to have a soft, comforting object of their very own. These children own almost nothing, and a blanket handmade with care especially for them would show them that someone, even someone very far away, cares. This blanket drive is part of the Slum Doctor Program, a grassroots organization whose mission is "to lift the burden of despair for people impacted by AIDS in Africa by providing hope, medicine, food, education, and dignity." For more information visit slumdoctor.wordpress.com. We're asking that blankets be made of a natural fiber or high quality acrylic, so they will be easy to keep clean, and that they be sized for children ages 0-8. We're also asking that if you do plan to cast on for Kenya, you email slumdoctor@gmail.com. The blankets will be brought to Kenya by volunteers, and they need to have an estimate of how many they will be carrying with them. The deadline for donations is June 15th. Finished blankets should be sent to the Slum Doctor Program, P.O. Box 2156, Bellingham, WA 98227-2156.
