KnittaPlease

Magda Sayeg, the founder of KnittaPlease is interviewed on Gothamist today. Loved this for a long time! She also has a Facebook page.

If you're craving to wrap something gargantuan in knitting yourself, you are extended an invitation to contribute knitting to cover the Skye Bridge, which links the Isle of Skye with the mainland in the West Highlands of Scotland. This project is sponsored by Luib na Lùban, a new textile art group in Skye and Lochalsh. The knitted pieces will be sold off afterwards to raise money for various charities.
