Helping the Homeless Through Knitting and Crocheting.

Thank you  Barbara F for this thoughtful and very generous donation of crocheted goodies.  Wow...she's been busy.  Hats all nicely labeled with size, cotton washcloths always a hit, a gorgeous shawl (that's super soft), and yarn.  AND look again, she's also included an infinity scarf.  Wonderful colors and variety to make lots of folks happy, warm and feel cared for.  Nicely done Barbara!

Please keep up the good work, and as always know how much you are appreciated.

Where are You and Your Yarn From?

I'm trying to identify where everyone is from, partially for fun. Take a look at the map. Also, believe it will aid me in cases where we have several people with the same name. Please look at the lists of bloggers and non bloggers and see if I have the state you hail from. If not, please leave a comment and let me know.

Additionally, we've had help from Scotland, England, Germany Puerto Rico, Canada, and France! They don't appear on the map, but their help is still greatly appreciated.

Where The People Who Donate Come From, is your state represented?
