Our friend RoseMarie has crocheted and donated warmth from head to toe. Hats to warm the heads, and slippers to warm the toes. Well done, as always RoseMarie. Be sure and click to enlarge picture so you can see the details of her gold scarf....very nice! RoseMarie has also donated personal care items which are always needed and so well received by all the shelters and those out in the elements.

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?
