Special Olympics Scarves

Do you want to volunteer for the Special Olympics?  Can you knit or crochet?  Well, I have a project for you!  The organizers are looking for 5000 scarves to give each of the athletes.  So far, they have over 1000 and need quite a few before the games start in February.  If you're interested, click the link embedded in the title of this blog entry!  Scarves are due by January 15, 2009.
