Look at these colors!

crocheted scarves
Another fabulous box delivered 2 days ago. Look at these colors, so nice! Scarves #86-87-88-89-90-91 and #92. All 7 of these scarves crocheted by Beth (crochet princess). They will be perfect for those folks at the clinic, some teens and younger children. I'll be seeing SIL tomorrow in order to pass these along.

Thanks so much Beth! Someone ask a few weeks ago if we would be continuing now that the weather is finally breaking. The answer YES. Some of our nights are still cool, so the need probably will continue for a short while longer. Then either Rae or I will store them so that when the weather breaks again in the fall, we'll be ready. Rather than having people have to wait until we get our fingers and needles flying again.

Look where we are folks with our goals:
Hats 200-175 ONLY 25 hats to meet goal
Scarfs 100-92 ONLY 8 to meet goal
Mittens 100-41 Need 59 pairs to meet our goal

We will happily accept items beyond our goals.

As always my deepest appreciation for all you've all done! Keep up the good work.

Worked late again tonight, so by the time I got home (after 8 pm), had dinner, opened mail...a bit late to call my SIL, but can hardly wait to connect so we get these things passed along to Rae. The mittens are really going to add soooooo much to keeping them warm.

My thanks for all the continuous support in knitting and crocheting, for adding the blog button to help spread the word, for the prayers to keep these people as warm as possible and as safe as possible given their circumstance. You have no idea how much good you have and are continuing to do.

I trully am in awe of you all. Blessing to one and all.

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?
