Thank you Laurie Smith for this donation of crocheted warmth. I borrowed the picture you posted on our facebook page because the one I took was as my battery died on the camera and it didn't turn out such that you could even see things. Laurie has I think the approval of her kitty? Or maybe...the kitty saying hey, don't mail those I want to lounge about them.
Folks, we're officially into spring, but.........the day before the 1st day of spring we had snow flurries, the first official day we had below freezing temps, and the 2nd day of spring it was even colder...25 when I got up in the morning. So, while your calendars tell you it's Spring, please please don't stop knitting and crocheting. The need most definitely still exists.
