Mother Daughter Team Up to Donate to the Homeless

Holly Cow!  Seriously, look at the number of cotton crocheted washcloths in this donation.  PLEASE click to enlarge so you can see what I'm talking about.  Some are spread out, others are stacked with the others of the same color.  This wonderful donation is a result of team work, team work of a Mother and Daughter.  Many thanks Lisa Z (daughter) and Ruth A (Mother) for your joining forces to make this donation possible.  Lisa has recently gone back to work full time, but had a nice stash of both yarn and cotton fiber..........so she buddied up with Mother, Ruth A who managed to crochet the stash into a generous donation!

Ruth has also crocheted scarves, nice dark solids, suitable for both men and women.  The dark solids are so nice for not showing the dirt for our homeless friends.

Great work ladies, please keep up the good work.  Hope the new job goes well for you Lisa.

2016 Donations:
HATS: 324
SCARVES (Gators, Infinity Scarves)279-7=272

**We started the year with the number of items we had donated last year, 2016; and will subtract our donations from that.  Using the end number for 2016 as the goal for the each item.  So, as the year continues you will see numbers decrease.  Our goal is to meet and surpass the number of items donated last year.**

All donations regardless of size and number are valued. All donations are appreciated. The Power of One is awesome, and when we work together The Power of One becomes The Power of Many.

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?
