Knitted Hats From Florida Help Cold Ohio Homeless

Thank you Cheryl G for this donation of knitted hats.  A little background here folks is Cheryl G is a classmate of mine.  A hundred years ago we graduated from high school together.......well maybe not a hundred years ago.......half that.  We recently celebrated our 50th reunion.  Cheryl returned to Ohio from Sunny Florida where she has no need of these nice warm hats for the reunion and hand delivered these hats to me at the reunion!  I thought that was cool, and wanted to share with you all.

These hats are super stretchy...you may not be able to tell that from the picture; but with the ribbing these hats will fit a large variety of head sizes which is awesome.  I love variegated especially because they're good for the men folk (well not the ones with pink, but you know what I mean).  

Cheryl I know I've asked you before for your pattern and thought I had added it to the hat tab, but didn't see it.  Could you send it to me again, love to post it.  I'm assuming you can adjust the size by the number you cast on?  If you wanted the hat to be longer?  It seems like this would be a good pattern and give people the ability to go up or down in size if they wanted to?

Wonderful to see you again at the reunion, I just wish there had been more time to talk.  Cheryl and I graduated with a large class...the number somewhat debatable, but around 480 we think.  No we didn't get that many people at the reunion, but we had over 100, so trying to talk to everyone wasn't an easy task.

Thank you for your on going support of Bridge and Beyond and Ohio's Homeless.  So nice of you to keep thinking of us while you're down there in Florida enjoying the sunshine.

**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?
