Help From Tennessee Aids Ohio's Homeless

WOW! Look at this awesome donation from Anna W from Tennessee!  Thank you Anna, such a generous donation.  This isn't the first time Anna has given of her time and her talents to help Bridge and Beyond.  

 Wonderful colors, great size variety and everything is so well made.  The yarn she used is so nice and soft, whomever wraps up in these scarves, or pulls on a hat or writs warmers is going to truly feel comforted.

 Anna has tagged all her hats with size, thank you for doing that.  And a nudge to remind everyone to, please and thanks.

 Anna looks to be a whiz with the looms.  Pretty sure the hats and scarves are knitted on looms, and I think???? the writs warmers (fingerless mitts) are as well?  I would love to post the pattern you used for warmers/mitts, as they are particularly nice.  The sizing seems like a real bonus to me.  The are nice and long and would really aid someone trying to stay warm.
I tried to show you how nice and long they are, but am not good with holding the phone with one hand and pushing the bottom to take a photo.

 Thank you Anna, and please keep up the good work and know you truly have made a difference.

**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.

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?
