World's Longest Knitted Scarf

Last Thursday night I brought all the information to our knitting group hoping we could all participate in Knitting the World's Longest Scarf . As part of the celebration of the International Year of Natural Fibres, Keep the Fleecein partnership with Heifer Internationalis helping to organize teams around the world to knit sections of the World's Longest Scarf that will all be joined together at the New York Sheep and Wool Festival, October 17-18, 2009. The goal is to raise $250,0000 for Heifer International. Please check it out. It's a wonderful project.

Thursday night also turned out to be an incredible Show and Tell night too. Here is a sampling of the incredible garments that were proudly modeled by their knitters and designers.

My Secret Garden

I come from a long line of gardeners so naturally I love flowers. Although my apartment is filled with beautiful plants, a flower garden is not possible. So I have created my own Secret Garden by photographing all the beautiful flowers I encounter in my travels or just across the street.

Prayer Shawl Ministry

The 3-stitch seed pattern was selected as symbolic of planting peace, healing, love, comfort and hope into the shawls by the shawl maker for the receiver. May you be inspired by the significance of these symbolisms which are meant to enhance the creating and receiving process of the Prayer Shawl Ministry. ~By Janet Bristow & Victoria Galo, 1998, @copyright 2008~
