HOBI is one of the local creators! Come and find lovely hand-knitted items for babies and children and adults. Buy them to support HOBI's work to empower women and save babies in Afghanistan.

HOBI will be present in the Know-it-all Marketplace. Please come and buy from our shelf some beautiful hand-knitted items for babies and children and adults! Great Christmas gifts! Every single franc will go to support the women knitters in Afghanistan and provide in turn warm items for newborn babies there.

The squares knitted by women in different countries have now been assembled to beautiful baby blankets by women in Kabul! Isn't that wonderful! Thank you all!

Remember the squares that women in different countries were knitting in May when HOBI celebrated 5 years anniversary? Today women in Kabul have started to stitch them together to create baby blankets. How exciting! We will see next week the ready products.

The newborn babies in Rabia Balkhi Hospital in Kabul were gifted with new outfits. So cute! See the reaction of the twin boys!

Michele has made 100 hats and several wrist warmers! Beautiful! Thank you! Most hats will be sent to Afghanistan but some hats and wrist warmers will be for sale for the benefit of HOBI. If you are interested to buy one, let us know.

The shipment of knitted items made by the solidarity knitters in many countries and those made by women in Kabul have reached the Bamyan province. They were distributed at the maternity ward in the presence of provincial authorities. Thank you all!

We had a great time during the Alternatiba Festival and were able to share information about HOBI to a lot of people!

HOBI has been invited to have a little information corner in the festival event called Alternatiba http://alternatibaleman.ch/ taking place next Saturday, 16 September, in Geneva, in Parc des Cropettes. It would be lovely to see you there.

Another shipment of jumpers, hats, blankets and booties was picked up by DHL this morning. Hooray!
