Thank you Texas for your Donation


A new pair of helping hands from San Antonio, Texas.  Awesome.  Love having new folks and their helping hands join in to help care for Ohio's Homeless.  Linda J. has both knitted and crocheted items here in her donation.  Most of the squares are knitted corner to corner, though there are a few crocheted granny style squares too.  Believe the hat and scarf are both crocheted.

Thank you Linda J, hope to see you here often on Bridge and Beyond.  Welcome to the group.  As a group, we accomplish so much.  Made 2 deliveries last week, and another 2 this am.  Though this post is written and scheduled, so by the time this post is read, perhaps other delivers will be made.

**Reminder folk squares should be mailed during the month of November, please check our working calendar to know what item is being highlighted each month.  Though most items are collected all year long, squares should only be mailed during the month they are highlighted.  It's helpful with my storage, thanks.  If you have any questions not answered in the square tab on top of the blog, please let me know.  You'll find necessary information about color, size, fiber etc in the square tab.**
