The spill that started this project was back in Jan 2000 I think. They have received over 15,000 sweaters to date and most are being sold to raise money for conservation projects now. http://www.knitting-and.com/knitting/penguinfaq.htm http://www.snopes.com/critters/crusader/penguins.htm BevQ It is sweet, but this project for the need for sweaters ended like 5 years ago, unless they have had a new major spill that we didn’t hear about?

Next time, we'll do the penguins (though I do think that penguins w/their distinctive B&W coloring would look much better in a 'winter' color palette than in bright green and orange).

I think it's TCFW that the Aussie Sisters would do something like this. I thought the sweaters were to keep the penguins modest, but then I realized the sweaters are sleeveless.
