Coming to a close....

Hi all.

Knits for Needs is coming to a close.  This has been a wonderful experience and thank you so much for entrusting me with your handmade items.  They have all gone to wonderful new homes and you have helped many people who otherwise would have had to go without!

All the inventory is cleared.... all items have been sent to Handmade Simple Comforts charity.  The P.O. Box will be closed the end of this month.  I will leave this blog up and keep the email active for a little while longer until I feel all ends have been tied up.

Thanks again for all your support! Please continue knitting and crocheting for charity there are plenty of opportunities out there.

Keep the yarn flying,
Michelle

Winding down....

Hi all.  I am tidying up to close down Knits for Needs.  I plan to send all the items that I have to Handmade Simple Comforts -- Mrellan, who head up that charity.  Here are some recent items that have been sent to me along with some money for shipping!




It has been great working with all of you and thank you again and again for all your support and knit items.  I will keep you posted as I close and final dates.  If you follow on Ravelry please unjoin the Knits for Needs groups so I can start to close that group down on there.  The P.O. Box that I am using is due for renewal at the end of July, so that will close then.

Here are two charities that have contacted me since I have posted about dissolving Knits for Needs:  Handmadesimplecomforts@gmail.com and Walking with Orphans, which has a group on Ravelry if you want to follow them.

I will leave this blog up and the email for about a month or so after everything else is done.

Thanks again!

Keep the yarn flying,
Michelle
