Homeless Hands Warmer with Mittens

crocheted mittens for homelessFour wonderful, crocheted mittens to warm 4 pairs of hands for our homeless. These nice warm mittens will make 4 less cold pairs of hands. Thank you Therese. I know how my hands sometimes ache even in doors when their cold, can't imagine living outside in the elements without warm mittens like this. What a difference this makes for our cold Ohio Homeless. I love the nice long cuff too. These are made with back loop single crochet stitches.

This is a busy time of year for so many of us, making your thoughtful donations even more special. Making time to knit and crochet for others when you're swamp with way too many things to do takes a very special person with a Huge Heart! Thank you all for your continued hard work and dedication to giving to others.

Excitement is building, think WARM




The cool days and cooler nights continue.  People have started scraping the frost from their windshields, ugh.  Look though as these wonderful items made with love from Theresa and you'll start feeling warm all over.

8 hats, 4 pair of mittens, and a scarf!  All beautifully made.  Thanks bunches Theresa.  All are needed and appreciated.


Mittens continue to be our biggest challenge, so many thanks Theresa for the first of those to get us rolling this fall.

Totals
Hats 252 + 8 = 260
Mittens 43 pairs + 4 = 47 pairs
Scarves 109 + 1= 110

Well, I got the pictures taken, and posted with the old camera; but couldn't edit them hum.  Looks like I need to play with things a bit more to get the background stuff out.  Will have to look again after work and see if I can improve them.

**still pending pictures of donations received from Sandie, Karen, and Danette.  Gonna do some reading on line and see if I can figure out a better method with this old camera.  PLEASE check back often

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?
