While reading Kirsten's blog, Pompom Rouge, I saw her post about Iraqi Bundles of Love.
The idea is that people raid their stashes of yarn or fabric and send bundles to Iraq. The supplies will be handed out by security forces (Iraqi and American) to women and co-ops that need them. You should start reading about it here. Honestly, it's brilliant. So easy for those of us with stashes, so important for those who receive them. There is even a post on how to build your bundle.
The hard bit is that this is wrapping up quickly!
You have to post your bundle before September 7th, 2009!
