Knitted Hats to Keep Homeless Warm


 5 Awesome knitted hats from the talented needles of our Marie P in Tennessee.  These hats are super soft, nice and warm, and very stretchy.  I love when hats are nice and stretchy...helps them fit a variety of head sizes.  Special thanks for adding the size tags, it is soooooooo appreciated.  Not just by me when I sort and bag items to determine where they go; but also at the receiving end in the various shelters etc.

I particularly like the variegated blue mix in the upper right of the picture.  Very pretty!  Keep up the good work Marie.  Look forward to seeing you here again soon and often.

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?
