I knit baby blankets and afghans for Project Linus (www.projectlinus.org ) and for gifts. Don Juan "helps" by grabbing the yarn, giving me dirty looks when I bump him with the needles, laying down on partially-finished projects so that I can't turn them, and laying down on the instructions. He also protects me from repetitive-stress injuries by climbing up on my shoulder so I have to stop knitting.
