Knitting for Peace?

Peace or Procrastination? Jill says procrastination
but our latest yarn company knits for peace!
Why Knot do both?

Not only are the yarns SUPER YUMMY but the needles are AMAZINGLY
BEAUTIFUL
! Oh and they have a social conscience...

Many of the people with whom Peace Fleece works overseas are in the midst of political, social or economic crisis and some are living in a war zone. Knitting is essential to the economic and emotional survival of these people. The Palestinian and Israeli shepherds from whose sheep come the Mid-East yarn, face terrorism on a daily basis. The Russian farmers and craftspeople with whom we work confront a daily dose of chaos and despair as well. By buying from this company you are making a diffence! It feels good to give back, right?
