Hope Podcaster Throwdown
(Our CraftLit-Throwdown group page on Ravelry) The rules are:
There are no rules!
No just kidding, but we are treating it a bit like a playground style throwdown, so there aren’t many rules.
It basically boils down to this:
Listeners may donate to multiple podcast teams (but each individual hat will only count toward one team).
Follow the Halos of Hope guidelines when making your hats. (http://www.halosofhope.org/volunteers/cap-patterns-a-guidelines.html)
It’s looking like there will be prize drawing for people who donated hats to the winning team.
Since we’re a multi-craftual podcast, please know that hats may be knitted, crocheted, or sewn. And there are even a few patterns for sewn hats/headwraps on the Halos Site. - Montessori Mischief
- Lots of What (Else) Would Madame Defarge Knit? KALs happening right now. Learn more and sign up for the mailing list.
