Donating Hats for Homeless


*this was suppose to post yesterday afternoon, sorry folks been having some troubles with scheduled post...continuing to work on it*

Thank you Marie P from Tennessee for this donation of knitted hats.  She has several sizes, several styles and a nice mix of colors.  The ribbed hat at the very top is probably my favorite.  Ribbed hats are generally nice and stretchy, which means they fit a variety of heads sizes which is a bonus...then again look how cute the mint green stripped one is with the little pompom on it.

Special Thanks for tagging each one with the size.  I know that's truly appreciated by all the shelters and aids them in proper distribution.

**It's June...June's focus is slippers, please check the details of sizes, colors, fibers, styles, and tagging in the slipper tab across the top of the blog.  There's also some patterns there you might enjoy using**

**Who's local?  Would love to get some additional help with assembling our afghans?**

    As if so many a variety of other medias the Internet has turned toward how to pull the most
    big ones from you. This can lead to a one night stand situation.

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?
