They really have a hard time up there. I know there are a lot of ordinary people suffering because of doings and decisions they had no part in. I hope someone, somehow will be able to solve this.

Buying icelandic goods might be a good idea - but I cannot imagine the amount of wool it would take to make a difference. I guess this doesn't help much:

For outdoor garments this is the best wool in the world. I have a boy who used to love his icelander. Now he is finally getting a new one!

And having a dad approaching a big birthday gives me another excuse to buy yarn, which I am not supposed to. Screams my overfilled yarn cabinet. But it's icelandic, and it's for dad. I scream back.
