2 Wonderful Boxes Donated for Ohio's Homeless


Two boxes of fabulous goodies from our very good friend Liz (minnisoda on the Ville). Box 1 contained 55 great squares. Look at the fun colors and designs.

Box 2 contained 8 nice size cotton washcloths, 2 hats, and 7 great scarves. Liz, once again you've out done yourself. Everything is wonderfully made, and so very much appreciated. Please keep up the good work.

By the time you read this scheduled post, we'll be over half way through the month of April...and while Spring comes for a few days at a time, we're still having frost here in Central Ohio. Warm items are still needed. Please keep your yarn close at hand, and remember we knit and crochet and donate all year long. That way, we're able to stock pile for all those living outdoors and those in the shelters to be ready when the nicer weather turns not so nice.

**this was scheduled to post on the 18th, but through a blogger gliche of several preceeding scheduled blogs not showing up, I've needed to move them to stay in line. Made the adjustments yesterday when I realized posts had not published. This post should have posted an hour ago, and I see it's still scheduled but ....no doubt due to blogger trying to force everyone to switch to their new format, what we need to work doesn't. Will continue to try and get things back on track.**

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. YOU truly DO make a difference. THANK YOU!

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?
