Combat Knitters

This morning as I was browsing through the Washington Post, I came across this article about women stationed at a NATO hospital in Kandahar, Afghanistan who have banned together to form a group called Combat Knitters. They are brave women serving our country overseas who find time to knit whenever they can, and pass their skills along to those who wish to learn. Take a minute or two and read the article about them here Combat Knitters Article and there's another story about them here Fibre Space. They also have a group on Ravelry. I couldn't find an address for where to send donations to the Combat Knitters directly, but I'm guessing the nice people at Fibre Space would be happy to help anyone interested in donating yarn and needles to the Combat Knitters.

To the Combat Knitters, and people serving in the military both here and overseas, THANK YOU!
