‘Casting on a prayer shawl to send to Newtown … I can’t knit 20+ quickly enough. Would anyone like to join me? I’ll work out the logistics and get them shipped. RSVP here, please.’ And then our shop FB page exploded with responses …
All day I have thought about picking my very, very dear granddaughter up at school (while bitching to myself in the car about those chain link fences and locked gates around her school campus … is this really necessary?) Apparently and sadly so.
I have cried off and on all day at this senseless shooting of young children … truly, nothing can comfort these families …
But we can craft them something and show them that we care … just work something up and get it to us, we’ll send it on ~ and we thank you.
So, if you’d like to join us send a cohesive package of love to these fractured families, here’s the address:
Ewe & Company
407 North Main Street
Kingston Springs, TN 37082
What a great idea! I’ll bring over a Color Affection shawl I recently finished.
Have a wonderful weekend and Happy Knitting!

Knitting one now.
Sent from my iPhone
starting a shawl now I recieved one last march when I lost my son. It gives me great comfort
I will be sending you 14 shawls from our prayer shawl ministry at Redeemer in Fridley, Minnesota. We have quite a few extras that we want to put to good use. Some of them are smaller which could be useful to siblings of the children. Ifthey can bring even a glimmer of comfort to those that are suffering so much we will have served the Lord. Thank you for organizing this.
When are you taking them. I am sending some this Friday , will it get on time
I notice Shawl Ministry took down their post on this…have they now got enough shawls?
They sent us 14 for Newtown, not sure why they took down their post but they are a continuing distributor I believe.
