Hats and Scarves Oh My

Look at this awesome donation of warm hats, scarves and mittens!  LOVE the nice variety of colors of sizes.  Something here for everyone.  Thank you Barbara H for tagging and pairing the mittens together with their size, and the sizes for hats as well.  This saves so much time for all the volunteers at the various shelters.

The gray scarf in the middle is gorgeous!  I LOVE LOVE the plaid look.  How did you do that?  Folks, please be sure to click to enlarge the picture so you can how awesome this scarf is.

Thank you also for taking time to deliver your donation in person!  It's much appreciated.

Please keep up the good work.

**We started the year with the number of items we had donated last year, 2016; and will subtract our donations from that.  Using the end number for 2016 as the goal for the each item.  So, as the year continues you will see numbers decrease.  Our goal is to meet and surpass the number of items donated last year.**

All donations regardless of size and number are valued. All donations are appreciated. The Power of One is awesome, and when we work together The Power of One becomes The Power of Many.

Knitted Loomed Hats Keep Homeless Heads Warm

Knitted hats loomed by Barbara H from New Hampshire will be surely appreciated by 9 more people who will now have warm heads as a result of thoughtful donation.  These hats are nice and think, and soft!  Nicely done Barbara, we're happy to have your helping hands.  I particularly like the 2nd hat in the top row...like that color combination, and I can see a young girl loving that purple one in the lowe left corner........something here to please everyone's personal choice of colors.

Many thanks and please keep up the good work.

**Still looking for a Jane B from Minnesota

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?
