Caring for Homeless



I've been away, traveling outside the country and am in need of catching up.  I want to thank those who visit daily, checking to see if there's a new post; that is appreciated.  I want to thank Linda J from Texas, Janis F from LA, Kathy Banasik from MI, RoseMarie from TN, Sandra R from FL and Laura J from Ohio for your recent donations.  Hopefully boxes will be opened in a day or two, photo's taken and blog posts written.

In the meantime, I thought you might enjoy reading this article...it certainly touches on our mission of caring for the  homeless and given this special time of year, seems an appropriate post.  Please click here to read the article.

Danting Crocheted Scarves

Scarves......we always need scarves.  We donate scarves to men, women, and children.  NOT toddlers or babies.  The scarf tab has important information regarding dimensions, colors, fibers etc.  Please check the tab and measure your scarves folks.  No scarf should be less then 4 feet 6 inches long; and certainly longer for older kids, teens and adults.   We want them to be large enough to be warm.  Most folks wrap a scarf around twice.

Scarves are our last item to compare the numbers in terms of donations.  In 2012 we donated 105 scarves by March 26th, in 2013 we more then doubled it!  In 2013 we donated 226 and thus far this year.........still growing we donated 239.  Well done folks.

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?
