Donated Crocheted Scarves Help the Homeless

 Thank you Beth G for this awesome donation of crocheted scarves!  I love all the nice solid colors that are suitable for both men and women.  While this first picture shows scarves folded, you can see in the second picture how nicely sized they are.  The calendar tells us it's almost Spring, and we have had some relief from the snow and freezing temperatures; but make no mistake.....that doesn't mean they is no longer need of wonderful warm items for our Homeless Friends.
It's still quite damp and cool and will be for some time to come.  

 Thank you, Beth and please keep up the good work!

    THANKS BETH. lots of nice warm necks and heads too in this donation. I like the fact that they are colors that both the men and ladies can take advantage of. Here in MN we are back to our regular March temps for the next week at least, 40s are a shock to the system after our 60 and 70 weeks. Shock to the folks under the bridge too I am sure. Snuggling up in a nice warm scarf will be a definite plus. Spring is just around the corner, but warm days are still in the future. Happy ST PATS DAY. GOD BLESS THE HOMELESS. marj in minnesota/40 degrees.

    Thanks Beth for all the wonderful scarves. The homeless here are so in need of these. Like Sandy said, even though its warming up it is still cold and damp at night. Sherry
