Pearl’s Diamond Socks

Posted by Virtuous at 2/11/2008

Did I not already mention that this is my 'year of the socks'?!?

Well I am gonna get to it! :o) In due time! ;op

How about these socks will be on my US2 needles this year too!

These socks were designed by Skyline Chilly. I love me some Emily! She not only knits up some fab projects, and always offers up great tips when I am wondering out loud, but has a heart of gold!

Em's aunt has had leukemia for a long time and she just recently celebrated a birthday where these socks were created just for her! What a beautiful thing to still honor your loved ones while they are still here!

Please definitely support this worthy cause by getting the donation pattern 'Pearl's Diamond Socks', as 100% your hard earned money will go directly to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society in Aunt Pearl's name!

To sweeten the pot even more, and hopefully encourage you to donate (not to mention you get a FAB sock pattern too!), Telmah just announced she will be having a CONTEST for the Cause!

Hopefully, that wouldn't be your primary reason for finally clicking that link, but if that doesn't get you moving over there then I don't know what will!

Lets continue to do a wonderful things with our knitting!!

    It was so nice to see that you are posting again. I was very sorry to hear about your loss. It looks like you have a lot of close friends and family looking out for you, but know that you're being thought about out here in knitting cyberland as well.

    Peace to you and your family.
