Hats for Homeless

Pick and size and color.......I think Tristi K. got it covered with the donation of crocheted hats.  Beautifully made, and nicely tagged with size.  Thank you Tristi.  Wish we could have connected,and hope we can next time.  It's always nice to catch up over a cup of tea.  A fun mix of hats for the school kids, including some nice darker colors for the boys.

 Thank you and please keep up the good work.  Not only will 20 kids be warmer, but they'll look great with this donation.

 **Please remember to tag all hats with size, as well as mittens and slippers**
***Please remember to avoid white, tan, beige and light colors that easily show dirt***
****Please remember to include a note with your name and email addy with your donations****

    Cant beat this one Tristi. Love the colors. Something for everyone. Here in Minnesota we are longing for anything spring. This is definitely going to fill the bill with all the cute colors and was happy to see something for the boys. Thanks so much for working on the kids project.. Many smiling faces at the school. 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?
