In an effort to help those who are being relocated north, The Irish Ewe will host knit-ins every Wednesday night from 5-8pm and Saturday from 1-4pm for all of September. Any knit item will be gladly accepted, as will donated yarn, needles, and patterns for others to knit with. All items will donated to shelters and the Red Cross as those who's lives were destroyed are now being scattered northwards.

Most of those heading to New England are from New Orleans - they are not prepared for our winters, even if they did manage to bring clothes with them. A hat, a pair of socks, some mittens, or a baby or child's sweater, that is all we are asking for. Let's do what we can to help!
