A glimpse of glimpse.
Saturday, March 19, 2011 at 1:17PM Thought you might like to see these.
A tiny glimpse of the Glimpse colorway, the drying lines groaning under the weight of more than 500 skeins of yarn.
To say we're overwhelmed by your generosity wouldn't even cut it close.
The yarn has all been dyed, and we've already begun the shipping process. Next week, all of these skeins will head to their new families.
On behalf of Share, on behalf of my friend Shelley, on behalf of everyone with whom this colorway resonates,
Thank you.

Thank you so much for creating this opportunity for all of us. We love you and what you do with colors!!!!
How wonderful! This is a wonderful thing.
What a beautiful colorway and a generous gift...
Thank you for such a beautiful post! This brings tears to my eyes - to see how much was ordered and to see it go to a worthy cause. Thank you!
Sharon, thank you. While I can't have my Charlie, I can be comforted by the generous gift of your time and talent. When I wear the sweater made from this yarn, it will be a hug from him, from you, and from those Yarnista fans who have supported me. You are a beautiful person. Bless you.

Amazing! Thanks for sharing this with us, and for using your gifts for good. I'm honored to be part of this, and I'm so eager to see this gorgeous yarn.
Thank you, Yarnista!
Sharon,
Thank you for spearheading this effort. I know it must have taken a tremendous amount of time and effort from your very busy schedule but I wanted you to know that it has meant so much to Shelley and to me (her mother) that you have pursued this wonderful project in honor of her and Charlie. It has brought Shelley a great deal of comfort to read posts from people who talked about buying Glimpse, and often to just pull up the picture of it. I also want to send out heartfelt thanks to those who have taken part, and will no doubt get great enjoyment from their beautiful yarn for years to come, while knowing they have helped others who have lost children they loved.

Thank you. There is nothing else to add.
Thank you so much for doing this. Thank you. My skein will be made into socks and a little wristband with my Mia's name on it. Thank you again.
I was wondering what happened to you - there hadn't been a post for so long. I hoped you and your family were okay. Now I see what you were up to! It's beautiful - in many ways!
Hi again!
Received my "Glimpse" on Saturday - it's really beautiful! And it's wonderful to think that someone else may be benefiting from my little purchase. . .
