Crocheting and Looming to Help the Homeless

Thank you Kathy S for this generous donation of warm hand crafted goodies!  Kathy's been very busy, as you can see with her crochet hook and with her knitting loom.  Hats and scarves, lots of different colors and sizes.

As I typed this post and schedule it to publish, it's been a couple of days of 12-20 ish temps here in Central Ohio.  So warm items are really needed by our homeless.  Homeless are men, women, and some children; though mostly men are the ones that live out in the elements.  The families, the women and children fair a bit better in getting nights in shelters; but still there is never enough shelter space for all who need it.

I know it doesn't seem like spring is that far away, 34 days; but with temps like we're having.......it sure doesn't seem very close.  

Many thanks Kathy and please keep up the good work.

Crocheted Hats and Scarves for Bridge and Beyond

Thank you Kathy S for this wonderful donation of crocheted goodies. Kathy has been busy, as you can see.  She's been busy crocheting scarves and hats.  Great colors Kathy!  As of the time of writing and scheduling this post, this could be the last donation of the year....however, by the time you read this scheduled post, we could have others......so stay tuned.  

Post will continue and counts for donated items for 2019 will continue through the end of the year...even if those items received before the end of the year are posted in early 2020.  Wow, that seems odd to type 2020.  It's been a rather fast year it seems to me.

Many thanks Kathy for thoughtfulness, please know you have warmed those in need.

Scarves From Illinois Help Ohio's Homeless

Thank you Kathy S from Illinois for this thoughtful donation of crocheted scarves.  Looks like Kathy's been busy making an even dozen scarves!  These small scarves will be ideal for the young ones.  Most of the colors are more suited for little girls, but there are also some that will work for the little guys as well.

Kathy's scarves are super soft and I'm sure the kiddo's that wrap these around their necks will be happy and warm!  Kathy's donation takes our number of donated scarves to just about 1/3 of the way there.  YIPPEE, love to see the numbers grow.

Many thanks Kathy and please keep up the good work.

Crocheted Scarves Warm Ohio's Homeless

Solids, stripes and variegated yarns oh my.  Look at the variety in these scarves.  Something for everyone.  Some are more narrow and shorter for the younger set, and others are a bit wider and longer for adults.........some colors suitable for women, others for men.  Thank you Kathy S for this thoughtful donation of warm crocheted scarves for Ohio's Homeless and those in need.  As I type this scheduled post, it's another ugly cold, damp, snowy day here in Central Ohio so know these scarves will be well received.

I often wear scarves even in the house to have the added warmth around my neck.  As we age, arthritis seems to add to our discomfort of being cold, so scarves really are a terrific item.

Keep up the good work Kathy and know you make a difference.
