as you know, through December 31st, i'm donating $1.75 (pretty much all the profits - the patterns sells for $2.25, paypal charges between .37 to .39 cents per pattern) from the Bejeweled Scarf patterns, to F.I.R.E so that they can deliver all your yummy handknits to children in Mongolia. i've got great news! Anichini, the world's foremost luxury linens and textiles company, has offered to match the donations raised from the sale of my Bejeweled Scarf pattern. what that means is that for every pattern you purchase at $2.25, The Mongolia Project at F.I.R.E. will receive $3.50!!! please, post it to your blogs and tell all your knitting friends! my goal is to sell at least 300 patterns. with Anichini's matching donation that would be $1050 raised to keep kids warm. we can do this! only 280 more to go!
Amazingly generous of Anichini to match your generation (generous of you to begin with)! I've just placed my order for the scarf, I can think of several friends (and my sister) who I want to knit this for. Thank you!

What a great cause and I admire your ambition to give back. The fact that Anichini is going to match your donations just shows how one person making the effort to give can really make a difference. I will be buying my pattern as soon as i post this. Thank you!!!
