Chalk up one more for Staten Island (10301). I'll have to drop by Christ Church when I have a free Thursday afternoon! Who knew there were so many other knitters right in my own neighborhood? I am lucky enough to have access to a wonderful knitting guru and to be part of a fabulous group of knitters here in NYC who knit for Christmas at Sea. Happy knitting, everyone! Hi there!

I'm a brand new knitter, and my mom is a veteran. Hopefully, we'll generate more Jersey recruits for CAS in the near future! Great blog! Thanks for the inspiration. Hey there,

I began knitting for the Christmas-at-Sea program when my children participated in travel sports. I found I could knit at practices and games. My children are now in college but I still enjoy knitting and traveling. I knitted during a10-hour flight to Alaska this summer. (Airlines are allowing knitting needles in carry-on luggage.) I’m a solo knitter but would be happy to join a travel knitting group. Please add Toledo, Ohio 43606 to the map.

I'm knitting for CAS as part of the Whipstick Knitters. We are all fans of Patrick O'Brian's Aubrey/Maturin novels and members of the Gunroom discussion list, which can be found at the website I mentioned. Our goal was to donate at least one item for each of the 21 Aubrey/Maturin novels. We have at least 42 items to give this year, and hope to do more in 2008.

For many years I knitted hats,vests, and scarves for my husband. He was in construction and it gets a bit cold here in New Mexico in the winter. He died in 2004 and my knitting was put on hold. I did not knit for a couple of years for Christmas-at-Sea and I missed it. I live in the 87110 area. Are there any CAS knitters in this area? I found your group several years ago in KNITTERS.
