Knit for Japan and Make a Difference

Yes, it's time: grab your needles and knit for Japan!

Knit for Japan was only a matter of time. After all, knitters are creative people who really understand the difference a hand knit item can make in a person's life, and they're generous people who are always looking to help -- especially those interested in knitting for charity. So with the recent disaster in Japan, it's hardly surprising that knitters have leaped to help.

What is Knit for Japan?

Knit for Japan is the brainchild of a German living in Tokyo who experienced the quake firsthand. Bernd Kestler (yes, that's a male name -- male knitters might be a rarity in the USA, but there are quite a few of them elsewhere!) decided to extend the world's sympathy through knitting.

I do knit preemie items for a nearby hospital's NICU, but I'm always on the lookout for other charities to knit/crochet for.
