Afghans For Afghans has just announced a new contest!
If you send in your rectangular shawl by July 18th, you’ll be entered into their drawing. Three lucky crafters will win a $50 Yarn Market gift certificate.
Note: when you mail your shawl, be sure to include your contact information (name, email address, mailing address).
Afghans for Afghans has announced their next charity knitting project: wool blankets and garments for youth (7-14 years). The project is timed such that the items will reach the recipients in time for next winter.
The deadline for this project is September/October.
Reminder: the deadline for their current project (rectangular shawls for women) is late July.
The deadline for the latest Afghans for Afghans project is about a month away. Their most recent update says that they will be accepting items through “probably late July.”
This time around, Afghans for Afghans is collecting rectangular shawls (stoles). They ask that the shawl be approximately 20-24 inches wide, and 66-80 inches long.
More details on the latest project can be found on the Rectangle Shawl Campaign page.
