Thank you RoseMarie for your thoughtful donation and your on going support of Bridge and Beyond. RoseMarie has crocheted and donated a matching hat and scarf set with her signature flower once again. I know you all know immediately who's donation it is when I post a picture of something she's made. LOVE this color combination RoseMarie, in fact it might be my favorite of your donations. She's also crocheted a handband with a decoration as well.
Like Diana K in yesterday's post, there will be additional pictures and posts to show you the rest of RoseMarie's donation. I often crowd as much as possible into a picture and believe you can see things better if I reduce the number of items in a photo. So, to improve upon the photo's and to increase the number of blogs posts, since donations are down I'll be breaking things up a bit. So, please keep checking in folks and don't be shy, when you visit, PLEASE leave a comment so we now you were here. Visits and comments help the blog's placements, as do the number of blog posts.
Looking back to this time last year folks (on September 16th), 2013 we had knitted and crocheted and donated 377 scarves. To date we're at 312, 65 short of last years mark. Wondering what to make next? How about a scarf? Please, PLEASE click HERE for the scarf tab and read all the information about what size, what colors, what fibers to use as well as what to avoid.

Love it RoseMarie. I like the dark blue. Not quite navy but just as good. I am always impressed with your gifts and am sure the people who receive them are too.
ReplyDeleteStarting to get the house ready for winter, and am concerned that all of us are not able to do the same. Lets all get together and provide the homeless with what they need to protect themselves from the cold. Thanks again Rosemarie you definitely do your share. GOD BLESS THE HOMELESS.
What a pretty donation RoseMarie. Some lady or girl will love that beautiful set.
