Crafting Conundrum

What to do when all your loved ones already have a scarf or hat, but the knit/ crochet bug has hit your house hard?  Expand the search for people or groups in need!
Scarves for Colorado Special Olympians
Knitting for a great cause is a way to continue practicing and learning more knitting and crochet stitches long after all your friends and family have homemade scarves and hats.

These scarves are for The Special Olympics Scarf Project.  The deadline for sending in scarves for Colorado is in February, so there is still time!  See their website for details on project requirements including size and color.

The middle scarf is the only knit scarf, the rest are crochet.  I found a few patterns from the project website, and made up the two flowered crochet scarves on my own.  I hope they find happy homes with the Special Olympics athletes and families!
