Knit For Our Troops:

Denver promised 5280 knit wool helmet liners to the Rocky Mountain USO this weekend, and I'm proud to say I added one to the pile. I had a great coach, and she's incredibly tolerant. Many bars around town were supporting the effort with free drinks and such, so it was a good time to learn. It also helps preserve your image to cut your yarn with a nice Ken Onion Kershaw, rather than scissors. [smilie=1:

Next year I'll be able to manage two... :-D

Forever thankful that the world's finest men and women are defending my freedoms,
LeadThrower

..........Lemme see here, you were knitting wool helmet liners while bar hoping with a tolerant female coach? :-)

I'd like to see what that helmet liner ended up looking like!

Interior or exterior liner? Interior would be fine, except those helmets are fitted, and any interior liner would be kinda hard to stuff under them... Trust me... I tried many times with the new fleece watch cap they give us. And that thing is super thin.

It will be appreciated though. Especially by the guys in the more rural parts of the mountains in Afghanistan.
