Recycling and Kool Aid Fun

Look at these fun colored knitted hats from Becky. Aren't they fun? The hats are made of re-cycled yarn. By that I mean, Becky takes apart old sweaters and re-cycles the fiber/yarn. Now, as she explains to me this can only be done if the sweater wasn't surged, (it's seams that is). Then she used Kool Aid to dye the yarn. She had fun with the process, is warming heads of those in need, and is recycling...that's what I call a Win, Win, Win situation!

Thanks bunches Becky for your donation. Been out of town and am trying to catch up a bit with documented donations.

We've got about a foot of snow on the ground right now folks, so all your hats, scarves, and mittens are doubly appreciated.

Looking for Becky P, can you help?

Thank you Becky. Three cute knitted hats and a crocheted scarf. These will go to the clinic and keep some kids warm. I particularly like the larger of the 3 hats, such unusual yarn and colors. Does anyone know Becky? She didn't send her email, or her on blogger ID and I can't find an email from her to know whom she is to thank her. The note in the pouch was written with a fat marker and is hard to read/think it got smeared a bit. I believe Becky is from the state of Washington? I've looked through RAV members but haven't found her in the Bridge group there.

Hoping Becky see's this and lets me know whom or where she is.

Many thanks Becky.

Please keep knitting and crocheting folks, it's bitter cold here, was only 2 degrees when I got up yesterday morning. My widget isn't working today, so not sure how cold it is right now; but my house still hasn't warmed up and I'm wearing a scarf indoors....does that tell you how cold it is here.
