Woot Woot! People who help the homeless with their skilled hands and yarn make me smile. Thank you Annemarie from New York, once again for your thoughtfulness with the vast donation of crocheted goodies. If you've been reading this blog while you know Annemarie is a wonderful supportor giving us her time and talent.
These has, slippers, scarves, and mittens will put many smiles on faces of people less fortunate then us. We physical warm people with our crafted donations certainly. But, we also warm their souls when they know someone they didn't know took time to hand make something special for them.
Please keep up the good work!
Though it is spring (and now the font changes back?), it is still cold here many days and nights. Sitting inside right now with cold feet and a fleece on if that gives you any ideas. Donations are still needed. So thanks to all whom are keeping their yarn and hands busy.
As some of your know I recently returned from a trip abroad, first ever! Hubby and I were fortunate enough to travel to Spain. It was truly an awesome experience. Love to share it all with you, and am blogging about it everyday this month (May) on Traveling Suitcase. Come explore with me, travel virtually while you knit and crochet.
