Cecile Richards Joins The 'Pussy Hat' Knitting Party Just In Time For The Women's March

😻 😻 😻

Planned Parenthood President Cecile Richards is not about to be left out of all the β€œPussy Hat” knitting fun.

In an Instagram post on Saturday, Richards took a photo of her hot pink ball of yarn in front of an instructional YouTube video to show her support for the hats ― and her attempt at making her own.

β€œOn my way to the immigration march in Washington this morning,” she wrote in the caption, β€œand using the train ride to learn how to knit my own pink hat for the Women’s March next Saturday!”

The β€œPussyhat Project” was launched over Thanksgiving by screenwriter Krista Suh and architect Jayna Zweiman. The Huffington Post reported earlier this month that the women created the pattern for the cat-eared beanies as they were recovering from the aftershock of Trump’s win. Thousands have gone on to knit the hats as well ― including Richards.

β€œI was so inspired by the women producers @thedailyshow who were knitting theirs the other night,” she wrote, β€œI figured why not try myself!”
