Warm Feet for the Homeless

Look at this awesome donation of super warm slippers in every color of the rainbow from Paulette J .  These are all made with nice tight stitches and double yarn or chunky yarn so are truly truly warm!  Several sizes to aid in warming a variety of feet.  I think my favorite might be the tan/gold center bottom and center left.

Paulette has been really busy.  How long does it take to crochet 2 dozen pairs of slippers?  Please keep up the good work Paulette, nothing is more miserable than cold wet feet and you've given people the ability to warm up, dry off, and feel loved and cared for.

Many thanks!

    Woo Hoo! Happy dance with all the wonderful slippers. Way to go Paulette! So many wonderful colors. I would hate to have to decide which set is my favorite.

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?
