Blogging in Alphabetical Order, Nameless Afghans

Reviewing some of the ghans that have been designed and laid aside to be assembled and came across several without names.  As today is N in our blogging in alphabetical order, thought I'd share them with you to see if we could come up with some names for these no named afghans.

I shared this one some time back and thought I'd name it Rolling Hills, but looking at it again...I'm just not sure.  Other thoughts for a name for this one?

Or this one?  These last 2 are more of the stripes someone intended to be scarves, but are too short to be scarves, but putting them together can make an afghan.  Both of these will be quite narrow and need some addition to the sides, but then I think will work.  Just don't names for them and am hoping you all might have some ideas.  I'll continue thinking as well.

The first one is squares.  They're not all the same size, but are pretty close so am hopeful not too much will need to be done to make them all fit together.

**The counts on our progress bars are current. All donations regardless of size and number are valued. All donations are appreciated. The Power of One is awesome, and when we work together The Power of One becomes The Power of Many.

Team Work

misc. crocheted itemsThis is a donation of possibilities from Sandie in LA. I say possibilities because Sandie and I often collaborate and work as a team. She sometimes has what she terms are odds and ends, starts, examples perhaps from teaching a crochet class. She knows I'm a bit crazy and put things together. In an effort to clean out a space for son, some things had to leave their craft room. Above are 2 hats, possible 2 scarves and 4 stripes, or 4 stripes. I might want to use those fun stripes scarves/stripes to mix with squares....thinking stages here. The black I think will work folded over as a cowl, and there's a pretty blue square.

For tabulation purposes I'm counting it this way 2 hats, 2 scarves, 1 neck warm/cowl, 4 stripes, and 1 square.

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?
