Hats and Scarves for the Homeless

 Thank you Diana K for this thoughtful donation of hats, scarves, and cotton washcloths.  Diane's been super busy with her crochet hook and yarn.  Pick a color........she's used it.  Diana sent 2 boxes of donations and I'm going to be showing you her other donations in the days to come.  Donations have been down folks, so thought I'd try dividing things up picture wise in order to post more blog posts...which if you've read the blog over the last 5 or so years you know helps with the SEO and placement of Bridge and Beyond.  Donations have fallen off, the blog's placement has fallen off, comments have fallen off.......so thought it worthwhile to try and boast things a bit.
Diana's scarves are made like a ripple which gives a cool effect and texture to the nice solid colors.  Diana can you share your pattern?  Would love to add this to our scarf tab.  Diane's hats have nice edging and texture also.  Remember you can always click on pictures to enlarge them so you can details better.

Many thanks Diane and please keep up the good work.

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?
