Warming Homeless Feet

Look at these awesome slippers and slipper socks!  Our good friend and long time supporter, Paulette has done it again.  Fabulous thick warm slippers, all nicely tagged with size.  Lots of colors to choose from and multiple styles as well.  She's included patterns which I plan to work to add to the blog so others may use as well.  Many many thanks Paulette J for all your hard work, kind heart and generous donation.  Ohio's homeless will be thrilled to have something warm and comfy for their feet.

Please keep up the good work and know how much you and your talents are appreciated.

**For anyone new to the blog, the counting below maybe confusing.  When 2016 began, we started with the number of items donated the previous year and are counting down in hopes of hitting and surpasses the number of items donated last year.**

Hats:      7  (Look how close we are to hitting last years mark)
Scarves:  +151
Mittens/Gloves/Wrist Warmers:  52
Slippers:   36-20=16
Rain Poncho's:   +106
Cotton Washcloths:  260

Socks:   82
Cowls/Hoody Combo's, headbands:    1 -1 = 0  YIPPEE, we've hit last years mark!

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?
