p/hop stands for pennies per hour of pleasure. There are knitting patterns that have been donated by people, which you can download and then make a donation to them based on the hours of pleasure that you will get from knitting up the pattern.
They have been raising money for Medicines Sans Frontiers / Doctors Without Borders, whose work has been amazing, especially when you think of the disasters in Japan and Christchurch lately. For more information about what MSF does, click here
They have raised in excess of £25,000 so far and their target is £30,000.
I have downloaded the Molly Weasley's Gift sock pattern, even though I was looking at the shawl patterns. There are some gorgeous patterns available, so if you see something you like there, please consider downloading the pattern and making a donation.
Thank you to the organisers of p/hop and a big thank you to the designers for donating their patterns.
