Beautiful Bounty from Bunny

Many thanks Bunny (Lynda) for donating your beautiful bounty. Bunny's work is always fabulous, soft, and so well made. 6 Knitted hats, 2 scarves (one is a keyhole scarf), hand warmers, and personal care items. Bunny has been one of our longest running supporters here which is so greatly appreciated. Keep up the good work, and MANY THANKS for your on going support.

This is post #499.......can you believe we're that close to hitting 500 posts here on this blog! Very cool, each of those post represents thoughtful donations of knitting, crocheting, looming etc. Thank you all.

**September is Scarf Month, and we're having another contest.
Running til October 8th (1 month), I'll toss names into a hat for everyone who donates a scarf for a teen or adult...male or female. Feeling like we need to bump those numbers a bit and will draw the winning name from the hat and send out another box of yarn. Contests are fun. We've had several fun, productive, and successful contests. Every scarf donated for a teen or adult (at least 5 inches wide and 5 feet or longer please), will qualify. **
