Description

"Macuwita sni" is a Lakota term which translates to: "I'm not cold"!

The several thousand children of the Cheyenne River Sioux in South Dakota need our hand knitted wool sweaters!!!

If you love to knit & want to open both your heart & stash to warm a child .... do join! There are no fees ... no schedules .... no requirements - well, I guess yarn, a little time and a little mail money to send your creation to SD are the basics which you will need.

Our focus is child sized clothing - size 2 -14. At this time, SUPERWASH wool garments are FABULOUS, 100% wool items require 'washing instructions' be included & 100% acrylics are fine!

Please consider a larger size too. Yes - it may take a wee bit longer to knit & use a wee bit more yarn - but older children are sometimes over looked. Heck the style *is* oversized anyway!

Got extra yarn?? Maybe a hat ... or mittens ... or sox ... or vest!

This group is a work in progress ... let us have fun & knit or crochet!! It would be wonderful if we heard "Macuwita sni " yelled out, loud & clear!

Re: Almost FOs
Who wants yards and yards of wool on their lap when it is already hot and humid? What patterns are you looking at for your next project? Inspiration accepted
