And things are rolling in....

With our deadline looming this Thursday (September 15th), the donations are starting to come in. But before I get to donations already received - we just need to do some Pinkknit-a-thon business. Please try to post things as close to the 15th as possible. If you need the weekend to finish things up - that's fine. We'd like to give the donations to the Komen Foundation the first week of October.

And now without further ado....

These first two donations from Jennifer and Wendy are the Just Enough Ruffles scarf, available on Ravelry. This scarf pattern is gorgeous! Very flattering so if you need something to knit as you are having withdrawals from Pinkknit-a-thon, try this one out!
Jennifer and Wendy also made some fabulous fingerless gloves! Hmmm... ideas for next year?

Caitlin did not have time to do the lace scarf for the exchange. She took her yarn allotment, added things from her own stash and sent in this beautiful stripy scarf.

Jess, intrepid student, made this gorgeous little number:
And finally, for this post, Carol sent five hats. Two of the turquoise:
One of the purple:
and two of these green/blue beauties.
Carol sent a note - I hope she doesn't mind my transcribing it here:

Dear Pinkknit-a-thonners -
I'm so glad I found out about your site from the Lancaster Yarn Shop. My mom is in treatment for ovarian cancer and so I decided to knit some hats for her. Then I found out about your project and knitted the yarn I had left over for additional hats.
The phrase* I put on the tags is one my mom found and taped to her kitchen cupboard. She's so optimistic and helps us to have hope. So far, all her results have been good and the chemotherapy is working. She still has 6 months of chemotherapy.
* "In facing the unknown, hope is as reasonable as despair." (Guideposts)

AND! thanks to Carol for remembering the tags! Yikes! I completely forgot. So if you haven't already sent your donations, please take a moment to add the kind of yarn you used (wool, silk, cotton, acrylic), washing instructions, and anything else. Thanks!
