KIDS...kids we don't know are in need. Think of the children in your life, your own, your grandchildren, nieces and nephews. Think of the kids that live next door...their sweet faces could be here. Kids of all ages, toddler to teen are cold and in need of our help. We've just recently posted our totals for the year of 2013, and sadly our numbers of warm hats, scarves, mittens, and slippers are down from the preceding year. We've had requests from several schools as well as shelters that they need help in supplying warm items for the kids in their care.
So, while the month of January is partly over, let's make the duration of the month and the month of February focus on kids in need. We need warm knitted and crocheted hats, scarves, mittens, and slippers. If you're able and want to make sweaters, and vests that would be awesome too.
Remember even a single hat will allow a school child to join his or her friends on the playground at school recess and not be singled out staying in due to lack of warm clothing when others are outside running and jumping as all children should be able to do.

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.
