Plans and PrototypesHi All!
I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season.  I managed to take a 2 week break from crocheting to get my wrists back to normal (I should totally take a picture of my "Jack LaLanne" wrist, lol).
Now that I've started back up again I've been making plans.  I am making plans to open a store (likely etsy) to sell original creations.  I'm in the process of making "blueprints" and prototypes.  I won't be posting these until I know exactly what my plans regarding selling them are (also better understanding the IRS' requirements).

Hats for Sandy Hook

:iconbrookette:

I just found out today that there is a project going on to make beanie hats for the students of Sandy Hook Elementary. They need plain green/white beanies and are trying to collect 600 of them. The deadline for this project is January 31, 2013. If you can help out by making a hat and sending it off, that would be so wonderful. There is also a :facebook: group that is collecting 6 inch squares to put together blankets for the victims families.

You can read more about both projects here on the Snappy Tots Blog [link] .

Any hats or squares you make for these projects can be added to our Charity Work folder [link] . Please spread the word about this project by :+fav: this journal!

Thank you for letting us know about these projects. I don't have much, but I've been trying to figure out what I can do to give to the Newtown community and this is absolutely perfect. I'll be getting started right away!
