There are many things that delight me about the LGBTQ
romance community. One is how
passionately we support various LGBTQ groups and causes. Another is how many of us are passionate
fiber artists. This fall, let’s bring those
passions together at GRL to support Atlanta area homeless LGBTQ youth.
Lost-n-Found Youth, Inc is a non-profit
organization dedicated to getting kids off the street. But there are only so many shelter beds
available, and they need warm clothing for those who can’t get a spot. If you knit or crochet, please consider
making a few hats, scarves, or mitts and bringing them to GRL for Lost-n-Found. A wide variety of sizes and styles can be put
to good use; I only suggest that the yarn be machine washable, so that the items
will stand up to wear and tear. If you
have questions about the project, I can be reached at fibrobabe@yahoo.com. You’ll also find me as Fibrobabe on Twitter
and Ravelry (the greatest fiber crafting website ever! If you’re not a member, you should be. There’s even a M/M lovers’ group!).
Thanks for helping us keep these kids warm this winter, and
letting them know that there are people out here who love them.
