Yes I know but read below. . this thread will go one of two ways. positively or south quickly :
I'm posting this on behalf of a relative who has inquired about a need for our troops to use these homemade knitted items. She works with the elderly and is part of some knitters' club. I am told in the knitting circles there has been a lot of talk of making these helmet liners as a group project...
Is this something that would be well recieved by our troops??. I have no idea but I guess it would offer some benefits other than the polartec version we have been issued. (one that comes to mind is that Wool doesn't melt).
It seems to be gaining quite a momentum in the US with volunteers rallying together so the thought is to perhaps see what the demand would be for a Canadian version..

So I defer to the forum and your constructive comments would be appreciated.. and NO I don't knit ;D .
