You're never too young to Help Others





Thank you Rebeccah! Rebeccah's mother Cindy contacted me and asked if we could put afghans her daughter made to good use. I infactly said,"YES!" Rebeccah is 15 years old, a fellow Ohioan and look at the talent she has! In addition to talent with her crochet hook at such a young age; can you see what a big heart she has? I bet you can. It leaps right off the computer screen. These lovely, warm, bright, cheery afghans will be loved by those who receive them. Several are nicely sized for children and others will be great for Moms. These 5 crocheted afghans will go to our folks at Faith Mission.

Keep up the good work Rebeccah, and again many thanks for your thoughtful donation. We're thrilled to have your helping hands.

I'm not sure I could pick a favorite, they are all so nice; but the the 3rd picture reminds me of an Indian blanket. Pretty awesome.

Please remember all donations regardless of size and number are valued. All donations are appreciated, and all donations keep someone warm. We help, one stitch at a time. It truly DOES make a difference. THANK YOU!

**The upcoming month of February our focus will be slippers. Knitted and crocheted slippers, slippers for men, women, and children. We will continue to collect all the items (give a square will be dormat for awhile), but if you wonder what to make...need an idea of what to make...make slippers** I'll be adding additional information, patterns, and ultimately a calendar in the tabs across the top of the page. Stay tuned.

  2. Beautiful work! It's wonderful to involve our teens and even younger children in our charitable efforts!

    I love the pattern in the middle one. I looks like she just used multi-color for those stripes. I might try something like that when I get the old hooks out.

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?
