Knitting Helps Homeless

Thank you fellow Ohioan, Linda W for this thoughtful and warm donation of knitted goodies.  Linda's been busy with her yarn and knitting needles, as you can see.  She needed warm wonderful slippers, and hats.  Both items are so very necessary to keep people warmer.  She's also knitted 2 cotton washcloths which are always a big hit at the various shelters, as well as with those living in the elements.

Many thanks Linda for your support, please keep up the good work.

Hope you're all staying warm, it's been frigid here lately with temps in the negative at night and early mornings.

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?
