Donating Crocheted Scarves Warms Homeless

Thank you Donna S for this wonderful donation of crocheted scarves.  I love that all of these colors are suitable for our men folk.  My favorite might be the brown fleck one.......though it's hard to pick a favorite.  These scarves help us decrease the number we still need to meet last years total.  Pretty exciting to see that number now drop below 200.  Can we get there by the end of the year?  I sure hope so, scarves sure help keep a person warmer.

Many thanks Donna, these scarves will be so well received by those in need.  Please keep up the good work!

Donna's obviously been very busy crocheting a dozen scarves, and now a dozen people will be warmer.

Thank you!!

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?
