ATTENTION KNITTERS & PENGUIN LOVERS!
these penguins need our help! a recent oil spill in new zealand has left these blue penguins covered in oil, cold, and at risk of ingesting the oil. knit a penguin sweater to keep these little guys warm until they can all be cleaned up!
click through to the Etsy blog post. the donation efforts are organized by Skeinz, you can read more about how to help, get a pattern for the little cozy, and get the address to send it to on Skeinz’ website here.
In the meantime, if anyone is talented enough to adapt a crocheted version, that would be great for us needle-inept crafters!
Guys, the penguins need us. It’s our chance to be knitting superheroes.
This is the most adorable relief effort that I’ve ever heard of. I can barely believe that it’s even true. Any cause that involves putting baby penguins in fashionable sweaters, is a cause that I fully support.

I love that it almost looks like the other penguin parent is bowing its head in shame.
Head on over to Threadless and score The No-Fly List by TeoZ and a ton of other great design submissions!
That penguin looks pissed.
