this morning i donated several hours of my time to help teach 15 carnegie mellon students how to knit in order to make chemo caps. it was fun. i *love* teaching and i also think it’s incredibly fun to support new knitters :) they all caught on super quick and by the time i abandoned ship, they were happily knitting and most were pretty far into their hats (one was even done!).
i also got these in the mail today. i needed some new business cards, so i broke down and ordered some moo cards.
and the full spread. best seen in flickr – clicking the all sizes button above the photo.

they’re expensive, but i love them. so pretty. and also, environmentally friendly. they won’t last long and i’ll have to order some more, but they’re nice as a treat.
p.s. if you like ravelry and would like to give back in some way, go check out the ravelraiser that is going on. it should prove to be fabulous.
