Crocheting for Homeless


Thank you Emily K for this thoughtful donation of crocheted goodies.  Emily sent 2 boxes and this is her 2nd recent donation.  She's crocheted hats, scarves, and cotton washcloths, and included a toothbrush and chapstick.

Emily's hats are a variety of sizes and will keep 4 more heads warm!  A warm head can make the whole body more comfortable.  Even in warmer temperatures.  It was actually nicer out yesterday than it's been in a good long while, so I went for a walk.  I had an earache by the time I returned, as it got windy and I hadn't worn a hat, so am reminded how important warm heads are.

Thank you Emily, please keep up the good work.

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?
