Help!--A call to all knitters (and crocheters)

Apparently our advertising department (which doesn't even exist) has been a little too effective--we have over 350 people on our waiting list! People are hearing about it from websites, newsletters, friends, Facebook, even counselors and treatment centers! We are only three knitters, and we're not always able to crank them out as fast as we would like...not all of us knit at the same speed, sometimes life happens and something gets in the way, etc. So this is a call out to all you capable knitters and crocheters (is that a word?) who have a little extra time on your hands and would like to help us out by knitting a buddie or two...or more! :)  There is a link on our blog (it's http://recoverybuddies.blogspot.com/2008/10/those-interested-in-knitting-buddies.html for those of you who want to jump right to it!) for anyone who wants to help make a buddie. If you have any questions, e-mail us at recoverybuddies@gmail.com. Be sure to spread the word! Thanks!
