Hats and Scarves Warm the Homeless


Thank you Karen S for this thoughtful donation of crocheted scarves and loomed/knitted hats.  Karen is starting us out with both hats and scarves for the year 2021.  

As always, remember to click the picture to enlarge (you can always do that here on Bridge and Beyond), so you can see the details.  She's made her cute heart shaped tags for size...such a nice tough.

In 2020 we knitted/crocheted and donated 351 hats, which was about 50% of our goal of 685, however that 351 was better than we did the year before in 2019 with 300.  I've set the goal for 2021 at 323, which is our average of the last 4 years, so hopefully, we'll pass that by and maybe even donate more than we did in 2020.

Karen has also started us off with scarves for the new year.  In 2020 we donated 146 scarves which was less than our goal of 218.  I've set the new goal which is the average of the last 4 years to 209, we'll have to work to meet that goal I think, since it's considerably higher than where we were last year.

As always Karen, many thanks and please keep up the good work.  

**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?
