Survive to 5: Knit one Save One

What The Stars Are Saying About Knit One Save One

Rebecca Romijn:

"I'm thrilled to be a part of this effort to help the world's babies survive."  Romijn stars in ABC Television's Ugly Betty series. "I believe all moms should get to experience the joy of seeing their beautiful babies grow up and do great things in life."

Debra Messing:

"Being a mother, I know how vulnerable a child is during their first few hours and days of life.  So when I was told that something as simple as a knit cap can help save a baby's life by keeping him dry and warm, I was moved to act," said Debra Messing, star of the USA Network series The Starter Wife.

Lisa Edelstein:

"It's a simple and easy way to help, and sends a message of love and support to moms and babies around the world," said avid knitter Lisa Edelstein, star of Fox Television's House series. 

Vera Farmiga:

"As I was knitting, I thought of the mother, pregnant like me, who will receive my cap.  Both of us are eagerly awaiting the arrival of our new baby.  Although we'll give birth under different settings, we're not so different in our hopes and dreams for our child," said Vera Farmiga, who starred in the Oscar-winning film The Departed and will soon be seen starring in The Boy in the Striped Pajamas and Nothing But the Truth.

Patricia Arquette:

"I was astonished when I learned how many newborns in Africa and Asia are dying for lack of simple things.  I got involved in Knit One, Save One so that I could give these babies a healthy start in life," said Patricia Arquette, star of NBC television series Medium.

Mischa Barton:

"It's great that you can help change a baby's life in just an hour  - or more like a few hours -  if you're just beginning to knit like me."
