We're Growing and Helping More, Thank you Patty

crocheted hats, mittens and blanketsOnce again I'm thrilled to say we're reaching out and making more and more contacts. This thoughtful donation comes from Patty S. A fellow Ohioan whom I met through Facebook. These 2 hats, mittens, and blankets are all crocheted. Not only did Patty and I met on Facebook, but we met face to face in the flesh. She was in town for business and was able to swing by to drop of her donation in person. So cool. AND, I also got to meet her lovely daughter who's a student at Ohio State.

The hats and mittens are size appropriate for the folks under The Bridge, and the 2 blankets will go to the Mission. The young children there will feel special on top of being made a wee bit warmer.

Thank you Patty. Your thoughtful donation is so much appreciated, and I loved getting to meet you and your daughter!

    A drop of in person. That's super cool. Your work in gathering us all together for this worthy cause is standing ovation worthy. It's only fair that you get to meet some of us in person.

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?
