Yarn, Yarn, Yarn EveryWhere

I saved these picture some time back to share with you all, and just came across it again and realized....I hadn't shared it with you.

Seriously, we all need a good laugh or a smile..........this did it for me.  How about you?  First off, let me say, I'm amazed whomever is driving the car isn't complaining about the yarn on the deck...sorta in the way of viewing?  Or at least if I were driving would be for me.  I do knit and crochet in the car.  I find long car trips boring otherwise.  Plus, hubby loves to drive and I don't.  So, I can often get's lots done in the car.  But, hello canvas bags.

Do you knit or crochet in the car?

How do you transport your yarn and your project?

Loving the ghan?  I assume it's a ghan, and it looks like she's doing some serious stash busting using every color of the rainbow.

**We started the year with the number of items we had donated last year, 2016; and will subtract our donations from that.  Using the end number for 2016 as the goal for the each item.  So, as the year continues you will see numbers decrease.  Our goal is to meet and surpass the number of items donated last year.**

All donations regardless of size and number are valued. All donations are appreciated. The Power of One is awesome, and when we work together The Power of One becomes The Power of Many.

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?
