Crafter's call
Jun. 2nd, 2009 08:26 amIf you're a crocheter, knitter, or sewer and have some extra love to give, (or if you're none of the above but local and want to learn, I'll help), join me in sending a few handmade items to homeless LGBT/queer teenagers in New York. It's summer now, but come winter, things get cold again -- we can whip up a few items to send to Sylvia's Place.
With Ellie's recent demise, I am sitting on a motherload of yarn. If some of it goes to projects for teens that need it, I think Ellie would be happy, and um, if any local friends want to help me use it up, I'd be really happy.

( Here are the items the shelter is asking for -- basically anything, according to the list below... )
