Kristy is collecting 300 hats to take to children in the Ukraine. Yes, I said 300 hats. Oh, and did I mention that she is leaving in September?

If you want information about the project, please click here.

So, the thing is, how long does it take to knit a hat?
And, if you are like me, you have yarn in your stash.
And, you don't even have to go looking for a pattern cause there are many online . . .

Knitpicks has a page of free patterns.
Knitting-and.com has more free patterns.
and, of course, knitty.com has even more free patterns.

So, go check it out . . . please . . . with sugar on top.
