Crocheted Warm Helps those in Need

Thank you Joy D for this awesome donation for Ohio's homeless.  So many crocheted goodies, hats and scarves, beautifully made.  Joy's also included personal care items.  I love the nice tight stitches you use Joy, makes things so warm.  Nice variety also of colors, some suitable for the men and some for the ladies.  Many people will be warmer because of you.

Joy's an old high school classmate of mine and I think it's really awesome we re-connected through caring for others with yarn.  Thank you Joy, please keep up the good work.

Knitted has to Warm Ohio's Homeless

Thank you Nancy W (better known as Pinnut on Ravelry) for these awesome knitted hats.  They are soooooo well made, nice tight stitches for warmth and very soft.  Love the color combinations also.  The nice wide brim is super stretching so will fit a variety of head sizes too.

Keep up the good work Nancy!

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?
