    WELCOME KARLA FROM OREGON!!! I agree with Sandy it is always fun to see a new person and also a new state. I dont think I have seen a new state added in the time I have been here. Again Welcome. Your scarves are so nice and will make a nice addition to the winter needs of the Homeless.
    We are getting rain today for the first time in 9 days. Believe me when I say my front lawn is a hayfield. Will be such a good thing to get a natural watering for a change. I am sure our homeless friends will enjoy it too.It has been so hot and dry..
    GOD BLESS THE HOMELESS. marj in minnesota

    WELCOME KARLA!!! What a nice donation from Oregon! The scarves will be nice when the cold weather comes back. Hope you get some rain Marj. It is a nice day here in MI. It is in the low 70's and a nice breeze is blowing.

    Another great amount sent to you. I love blue but the middle scarf caught my eye with the unique colours. Congrats on adding a new state

    I'll try this again: Thanks for the welcome everyone. I'm happy to find a place to send things. I've given a scarf to every lady in the church, and participated in several other winter warming drives, but I still have MUCH yarn to use and few places to send. This works good.

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.
