Teal Crochet Scarf Donated, Though Lost in Space

LOVE this color!  Click to see the details of this awesome scarf from our good friend Sandie P from Louisiana.  Folks this crocheted donated scarf has been lost in space.  By that I mean somehow lost between my phone and my computer..

Let me explain, as best I think I understand what happened.  In case any of you experience something like this.  I stopped using my camera to take pictures for the donations here on Bridge and Beyond some time back, as the pictures on the phone were actually turning out better.  There are several methods to transfer photo's from your phone to your computer

  1. Plug in with USB port and follow prompts
  2. Click share button your phone and email them to yourself, then open on the computer and save to the computer
  3. Send as attachment in an email to yourself from the phone, and again open on the computer and save to your computer
Most of the time I use the 3rd option.  Plugging in with USB port for a few pictures just seems cumbersome and time consuming, and if I'm emailing as attachment vs sharing, I can send 2 or 3 pictures at the same time in one email.

You get a prompt it's been sent, and then I generally delete it from my phone gallery when I load it/save it on my computer.  For some weird reason, it wasn't on my computer, it didn't fully get sent to the computer, it was like it was limbo...in neither place.  Then out of the blue (a week or 10 days later), I got the email it had somehow been in the send loop all that time.  Strangest thing.......never had that happened before.

All that to say is, this wonderful scarf has now appeared.......truly lost in limbo, in the airways or something??!!

Thank you loads Sandie P, always wonderful work.

Has anyone else had anything like this happen?  Don't know if it matters, but my computer is windows (10), my phone is Android.

**Came back to edit to let you know the scarf is Teal, and Sandie told me what type of yarn she used, Yarn Bee Soft & Sleek Chunky, Teal.  It's really pretty.

**The counts on our progress bars are current. 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.

  1. Ha! I have had all sorts of weird things happen to me when I try to transfer things from my phone. Now I have a new phone so I'll see if I do better. This one takes great pictures, even in low light. I have used all those methods too. I'm glad you found it. :-)

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?
