A friend, who also happens to be a knitter, is facing some surgery and a few days in the hospital next week. Being the sort of person who could not even donate blood without knitting in my lap, I immediately set about preparing knitting care packages for her hospital stay.
The knitting needs to be the kind where she can pick it up and start knitting without having to clear a possibly foggy-from-medicine head. I want the knitting to help her heal, to boost her spirits, and to comfort her.
Love,
Kim

That is maybe one of the coolest ideas ever. Wow. I am so impressed!
Oh my goodness, that is the sweetest, most thoughtful, oh so clever idea! I'll bet she will love it.
Tell her your blogging friends wish her well.
I love this idea and will keep it in my brain for future use. This is why you are the creative one. Your knitting friend will be added to my nightly prayers.
Can't think of a more thoughtful, healing gesture than cast-on knitting in a clear paint can. You are a genuine "angel knitter". Best wishes to the recipient.
Such a lovely idea! What a great friend you are!
I just bought some of those cans today to use for packaging Christmas cookie and candy gifts, but I love the idea of putting a knitting project gift inside. I may have to go back to Michael's tomorrow for more! You are a thoughful friend.
