Hats for Heads Help the Homeless


Thank you Linda W from Ohio for this wonderful donation of knitted hats!  Hats to fit adults and one for a child as well.  Really like the one pictures lowered left with the wide stretching ribbing...helps to fit different sized heads.  Very nice!!

Please keep up the good work Linda, warm heads make such a huge difference in someone's comfort, even in the cold outdoors.  It's currently 34 degrees, but feels like it's 26 degrees with the wind chill, so hats are most definitely needed and very much appreciated.

    Thank you so much Linda for this terrific donation of hats! Your work looks wonderful! And they are such nice manly colors. That will help the men under the bridge who we never seem to get enough donations for. Thanks for using your time and talents to help those less fortunate! Keep your needles flying!

Thank you so much Linda for all your hard work getting hats done for the Ohio homeless.They are nice and dark and will help the men under the bridge. As Sally says we have a hard time getting enough donations for them. GOOD JOB.

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?
