Blanket for charity

I've started using up my yarn stash with a blanket made of 6inch squares. It is destined for street children in Kenya. The knitting was fine but sewing it together nearly killed my knees.

Very nice, the children will love it. Next time though, don't use your knees for sewing  :P

@Starryfish - love your blanket and nice to hear that at least one charity is accepting donations. So many of them are still closed.

@Starryfish why did it cause knee problems?
