Yay! What's great is that there is a lot of design freedom as long as you stick to the colors and size specified. If you're a beginner it is totally do able with just knit and purl, or even just knit.
I've already got a few people on campus interested so hopefully we can do it en masse as a UI project and get our other campus sites involved. I know a few young women who are fiber artists but none who are Greek so I'd have to network that one.
I think if I do some public knitting it may get people interested in doing their own or donating for materials and postage. We just had a super Walmart open in Pullman ans since they are a sponsor I may be able to get the materials low cost, as well as the two other stores in town. We have a new knitting store opening next week where people plan to teach so maybe the teachers might donate time for this project. Our region is pretty large, but we have two teams in Moscow so I know there is local visibility.
