Knitted Loomed Hats and Cotton Cloths Aid the Homeless

 Thank you Karen S for this thoughtful donation of crocheted and knitted goodies.  Please remember folks you can always click on pictures to make them larger and see details here on Bridge and Beyond.  Karen has been busy crocheting cotton washcloths.  What fun variegated mixes she used.  I've seen the brownish one before, but don't think I've seen the green-yellow-reddish one before.  Very nice!

 She's also been busy with her knitting looms!  Check out the hats.  While I know it's August, often referred to as the Dog Days of Summer, it's been cool here the last couple of nights.  When I got up this am...it wasn't even 60.  So, it's really cooling down a bit early.  I hope that doesn't mean Fall is going to be colder and sooner than normal.  People will be needing warm hats before we know it.  Unfortunately!

 For all you folks who have looms at home, please scroll back to the previous post.  I posted a link with written directions and a how to video for using those looms to knit really nice writs warmers/fingerless mitts.  PLEASE check it out.

**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.

    Nice wash cloths! The variegated cotton yarns are great for cloths. For here a cool down would be nice but we're still highs in the 90s and lows in the upper 70s. Hoping your winter doesn't come sooner and colder. 50s would make me bring out the scarves and hats.

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?
