Crocheted Warm Items Help Homeless

Thank you Emily K for this thoughtful donation of crocheted goodies.  As you can see, Emily has been busy crocheting hats, scarves, mittens, and fingerless gloves!  You all know how excited I get when we get mittens.  Really nice Emily.  Love how many different head sizes you've made warm with this donation.  Particularly like the hat on the right with warm orange and earth stripes!

Emily has also included some personal care items, AND batteries.  Folks batteries are always needed by those living out in the elements for things like flashlights; though it's not something I've asked for in the past.  Batteries are heavy and I was concerned about the weight issues and it making postage more costly; but.........they are indeed an item that is needed and appreciated.

Many thanks Emily, please keep up the good work.
