Dear Atim,
Thank you for knitting my hat, it is beautiful! It is extremely soft and thick and has already proven to keep me warm in the cold days that we've had in Pennsylvania. You have a beautiful smile and I hope you continue to choose joy and keep smiling. I really hope and pray you receive the opportunity to go back to school one day! Sending you much love and my God bless you and your family.

Thank you for my hat! It's a lovely blue and ocean beanie that fits perfectly to the Seattle weather. Plus, it matches the colors of our local sports teams! Perfect. :)

Atim,

Bless your sweet and courageous heart. Years ago, I received a hat of yours as a Christmas gift, and I have been hooked on KKi ever since. I hope that my support can continue helping you through school and the KKi program. As a college student, I have began to value education so much more. As I wear all my KKi gear around, I feel so lucky and honored to tell the world about you. I wish you the best of luck in all you do. Thank you for being apart of this world and sharing your gift with others!

With love,
Emma

Hello Brenda,

I want to tell you how much I love the little Everett hat that I purchased. It is for my first grandchild that is due later this month in Alaska. I know it will get a lot of wear and it is so soft. I may just get one for me.

Continue your excellent work!

I am a crocheter too, and I can really appreciate your work...and I totally understand the happiness a project can bring, especially if it earns you some money also. We got your hat today, it's a gift for 23 year old daughter, and now my 18 year old son wants one also! You are so lovely, your personality really shows in the picture of you!! Please continue to seek out your education, for the freedom it will bring you and your children...many blessings upon you and your friends!
