- Joanne, you might want to post your socks in the new Sock KAL.

- Ok, finished my socks and did a little spinning. Now back to hats.

- Joanne, I think 50 hats per year is a very laudable goal. There is nothing wrong with taking off a little time to spin and knit something else.

- I now have 16 hats for my project. I usually give hats on my birthday which is in November. I try to have 50 hats per year. A little behind right now but I'll be taking some time off from hats to make a pair of socks from yarn that I spun. Maybe I'll make another hat sometime between the two socks.

- Tammy, the one that was for the speed knitting contest is here. There are lots of organizations out there that accept preemie hats. You might even check your local hospitals if you want a Canadian charity to donate to, go here. Let me know if those don't help you.

I have heard of the magic loop but know nothing about it.
Can you help. Also I am from Saskatoon Sk. Canada and can't find anywhere to send preemie hats too.

- Joanne, I know each and every child has a beautiful piece of art. Your work is amazing. The magic loop is my favorite method of knitting.
