Scarves for Sandy Hook

 
This is a post that Tina found on Facebook after having talked to a customer who told her about it. 
I thought some of you might be interested in knitting or crocheting a scarf for the Sandy Hook children.  This is a tragedy that is so horrific, it boggles the mind.  There is not much any of us can do, but if they want scarves - let's make them scarves!  How about it? 
If you tell us that you are making a scarf for the Sandy Hook children and buy kelly green or white yarn, we will give you a 10% discount.  The scarves need to be 40-50" in length.
You can also bring the scarves here after you are finished and I will make sure they get mailed to the right person.  The scarves will need to be here by the the 9th of January, so they can get mailed in time.
 
Thank you.
 
Here is the post:
