Sweet Softness for the Homeless

knitted childrens hatsSWEET...can you think of any better word to described these adorable pink children's hats? And look at the cute heart on the white and pink hat. Remember you can click any and all pictures on a blog to enlarge them and see them better. These fabulous hats are knitted and donated by our friend Louise out in California. Way to go Louise. As always, your work is fabulous. I asked her what yarn she used and she wasn't sure she remembered but listed 3, and from that I would guess she used a baby sport. You can feel them,...really you can...look at the picture and reach out. See what I mean. That's how soft and lovely they are.

May is now officially over, wow...where does the time go. So, since this is June we're now into our cotton cloths focus. If you've not been to the blog in awhile, please spend some time looking around, as I've added some new things. A working calendar which shows our focus for each month. For new folks, please please read the what you need to know tab across the top and then if you have questions email me.

We are still rollin along with our comment contest...you've got til June 15th to chat/comment your little heart out. Click in the sidebar or on top tab to read about it. Surely you want a chance to win a shopping spree at JoAnn's! Get busy folks, times ticking away.

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?
