One of the blogs that I follow,
Before the Morning, is about a family with a little boy who has a skin condition called Epidermolysis Bullosa
. Recently, the sweet mama Patrice who writes the blog found out about another little boy with that same skin condition in Russia - only that little boy is an orphan! The orphanage in Russia won't even take him since he has the skin condition (link to a page with more information about all this:
here). Anyway, Patrice felt moved to try and help out the little boy, so she started a blog (
Hope for Anton) to try and raise money to offset the cost of his adoption if a family decides to adopt him!
The reason I am talking about this is I felt like I could do something to help raise money, so I am knitting some things to donate that she can auction off! First up, I made a pair of my fav fingerless glove pattern:
Pattern: 75-yd Malabrigo Mitts, modified to add a thumb
Yarn: Patons Classic Wool
They are up on the blog (
here) and already getting bids!!!! I am so glad that people actually want to buy them!
Anyway just wanted to share what was going on. Let's raise some money!!!!
