From the Top of the Head to the Tip of Your Toes

Thank you Marie P for this thoughtful donation.  You've covered head to toe with your donation of knitted hats and socks.  Marie's also included personal care items with the soap and washcloths.  Special thanks for tagging your hats with size...so much appreciated.

I'm partial to the red hat with black stripe, but know they all will be hits and help keep someone warm.  Thank you and keep up the good work.

If you haven't yet done so, please check out the updates on the working calendar tab.  Remember focus items are suggestions, you are not restricted by that.  I know we all try to utilize yarn from our stash, which often dictates what we make when.

Hats: 6+4=10
Scarves: 8
Socks: 4

    Thanks Marie. Wonderful selection of hats and mittens. I am a purple person myself so you know which hat I would choose. Lovely colors.
    It is 11 below in Minneapolis this morning and not expected to get much better all week. Definitely need help in the warm up department. Thank you for doing your part to help the homeless in Ohio, GOOD JOB.

    Thanks so much for your donation, Marie. Think there are four purple lovers here as purple has always been my favorite color. Thanks again for your wonderful donation.

    Thanks Marie! This is an awesome donation! I am a red person so I love the red hat like Sandy. However I really like them all and am wondering if you could tell me what patterns you used. It is terribly cold and very snowy here in NJ and I know this winter is a rough one. There are going to be a number of folks who will be very grateful to receive your donation. Thank you so much for helping those less fortunate. Your kindness is truly appreciated!

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?
