Donations for Ohio's Homeless

 Awesome donation of crocheted goodies for our good friend, Liz E (some of you probably know her as minnisoda over in the Ville).  Thank you so much Liz for your thoughtful donation.  Matching hats and scarves..........and all the hats are nicely tagged with size.........truly I love it when folks do this.  She also knitted some cotton washcloths to include in her donation.  All these items are needed and will be so well received by those at the various shelters.

With weather turning nasty, not many flowers and birds migrating from Ohio to warmer places I wanted to share this pretty card.  I love little Hummingbirds anyway and just thought this card was too pretty not to share.  Liz included her note with the above donation.

Thank you Rose Marie for your thoughtful crocheted donation.  Rose Marie has been such a good supporter for a good long while.  She's crocheted a matching scarf and hat set, a couple of headbands and writst warmers/fingerless gloves (lower left corner in gold).  She's also included personal care items in her donation for Ohio's homeless.

Hello My Name is

Ok some of you might have already seen this on facebook, but for those that didn't here's a little fun.  What is your knitting designer name?

Take the first letter of your first name...S  and Y for me = Sexy Yarnaholic............and there you have it folks.

Have fun and leave comments as your name.

I do hope everyone is busy knitting and crocheting; we've had more then a handful of nights with frost, leaves are turning color and dropping off trees...........fall is here, and fall for those living outside and or in temporary shelters is cold.

Remember we're highlighting mittens this month, something we never get enough of.  Currently we're well behind where we were last year on the number of mittens donated.

When I posted the stats a few days ago indicating where we are currently compared to where we were at this time last year.

Mittens

 Currently we've donated 176 fewer mittens then we had at this time last year.
