    Happy to be the new kid on the block, ladies. Thank you for the nice write-up, Sandy. :)

    Marj, thank you as well! The strange orange yarn was my 'gift to self' when yarn was 50% off at Michaels. It looks much prettier in person. Some little guy or gal is going to love it! :)

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?
