Knitters across America heed Obama's call for service by knitting caps for preemies in Pennsylvania.

We are a diverse group of knitters and crocheters from all across the country (and beyond!) that decided to put our talents to good use by doing some charity knitting in honor of Senator Obama.

A quote:

They created a drive for handmade caps in tiny sizes – some only a few inches in circumference --- to donate in Obama’s honor to Pennsylvania hospitals that treat premature babies.  (Hats will be donated in other states as enough are finished.)  Because preemie babies have trouble maintaining their body temperature, they must be dressed especially carefully, with an eye to warmth.  But because these infants are so tiny, they often do not fit into regular-sized baby clothing.  Knitters and crocheters can create perfectly-sized hats, ranging in circumference from six to twelve inches, to fit these little heads.
