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.
