Thank you for your on going support of our homeless here in Ohio, we surely appreciate it.

**Please avoid the use of white, off-white, tan, and beige in your donations. Laundry is not often an easy option for those we donate to, so colors that don't show the dirty easily are best.**

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.

ReplyDeleteI always enjoy taking a look at the year's past doings. Looks like it hasn't been too bad of a year for the Bridge. Kudos for continuing this good work. I received some donated cotton yarn and will be making some cloths for you soon.
ReplyDeleteReally nice work Katie! Looks like you've been busy.
ReplyDeleteI also like that blue wash cloth design. All those hats will sure help keep lots of heads warm.
