I know. I have unfinished projects too. And people I love who are waiting for them. And it's one of the best feelings in the world to give a knitted gift to someone special, someone you love and who probably loves you back.

But it's a completely different kind of awesome to create a knitted gift for someone you don't know at all, who doesn't know you either and never will, but whose life you can touch in this powerful, selfless way by giving of your precious time.

While you're making a gift for someone, be sure, as every millimeter of yarn passes through your fingers, that you are thinking positive and happy thoughts. Imbue your gift with love and serenity. I know it's fun to stitch and bitch, but remember who's going to wear your gift and spread the positive energy.

Do it.
