    Thanks Liz. Nice donations. As a fellow Minnesotean you know what cold is. 8 degrees here on Black Friday. Obviously I am not out there shopping. GOOD JOB LIZ
    Hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving, I know I did. Need to find a box for my latest donation. Gathered hats yesterday at dinner from a couple of other family members. My granddaughter is learning to crochet. She has included some hats too.Should be on the way soon.

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?
