Crocheted Scarves Always Help Those in Need

Thank you Sandie P for this wonderful donation of crocheted scarves for Ohio's Homeless.  As always, remember you can always click on photo's to enlarge and see details.  You really need to do that with this picture of Sandie's scarves so you can see the texture she has created with her variety of stitches.  She has some fun colored scarves, some nice solid colored scarves, and some with gradient type coloring.  What a nice mix.  

Scarves can make such a difference in how warm someone is.  They can be wrapped around multiple times, or pulled up to cover ones nose, or wrapped inside a coat for added chest warm.  Scarves are a true must in Ohio's cold winters.  Today when I awoke it was 4...4 is really cold.  I wear scarves inside most of the winter, so you know how needed they are for folks living out in the elements.  Or those who need to spend the day outdoors before they can get a bed inside at a shelter.  

We have had more snow, and colder temps this winter it seems to me than we've had in the last couple of years.  Though hubby and I wonder if because we're getting older, we just notice the cold more?

Many thanks Sandie for your long time support of Bridge and Beyond, and please keep up the good work.  Normally I would want you to send us some warmth, but weather reports show me you're too are experiencing a colder than normal winter. 


**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. You are right, Sandy. We had a few days of below freezing weather - highly unusual in my area of the world. No snow, but freezing rain. I haven't put my foot outside in days. :-) I'm like a bear, hibernating in winter. I'm happy the scarves made it to you and hope they keep a few folks warm. It's sad that they're needed but I'm glad to do what I can to help.

    1. Smart on hour part to stay in and stay warm, and safe from falling. Thanks for your help, though like you I wish it wasn't needed. Some day perhaps this problems will be solved. We can hope.

  2. Very nice, warm looking scarves Sandie P. I would rather have snow over freezing rain anyday.

    1. Agree on the snow over ice and freezing rain. Less dangerous for sure. Thanks for popping in Sue.

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?
