Thanks to who everyone purchased my MN patterns in January. I was able to donate $262 to both charities & Ravelry is donating their fees as well. I will continue to match and donate all my earnings from this pattern to Joyce Uptown Food Shelf and DHH Church in Minneapolis to help feed those affected by the ICE invasion through February.

Minnesota Knitters’ Guild members can still get this pattern for free on the MKG website.
