North Dakota. Finally.

We’re getting towards the end of our third “season” of Knit Your Bit.  And guess what?  We finally received a box of scarves from North Dakota!  I know those Dakotans need scarves to keep themselves warm, so I appreciate the ladies from the Fargo Public Library for sending some our way.  Scarves are still coming in fairly regularly.  Lots of different styles and designs.  I really like the color varieties on the patterns.  Now, as the humidity creeps up here in New Orleans, it’s time to start thinking about next year’s design.  We still get so much interest and outpouring of kindness from knitters, as well as appreciation from the VA Centers throughout the country where we send the scarves, that I can’t imagine this project fading anytime soon.  I hope you all are enjoying the sounds of spring wherever you are.  And thanks again for your generosity towards our veterans and support of Knit Your Bit!

I'm so glad you'll be continuing, as I just stumbled on this project and both my mother and I have started to "knit our bit"! I think it's a marvelous way to show appreciation for those who have served.

I just found you, too - please keep it up. My grandfather was in WWII and I will definitely be knitting some scarves. I will encourage all the knitters I know to do the same, too. Thanks for this important project.

Is there going to be a 2009 pattern published soon?
