Thank you Mimi T for this awesome crocheted afghan. I love the rustic look. These colors are so nice because they will work for either a man or a woman. What type of yarn did you use, it's so nice and soft!!
Mimi is our newest pair of helping hands here on Bridge and Beyond. We're thrilled to have you join us.
But...wait folks.
Look what else she's been busy making. I LOVE LOVE this blue checker board afghan made with 3 shades of blue. Please click to see the picture larger so you can see the details. I'm not sure, but wonder if the stitch is the afghan stitch? Like the rustic afghan above this blue works wonderful for a man or a woman and both are sized nicely to work for a family.
Again Welcome Mimi, we hope to see you here often on Bridge and Beyond and appreciate you're helping hands.

Thank you Emily K for this very thoughtful and generous donation of knitted and crocheted goodies. Take a look folks, and remember...you can always click on a picture to enlarge it to see things better or to see more detail. Emily has crocheted a pair mittens (the blue ones), and the fingerless ones, several hats, headband and scarf, as well as the cotton washcloths.
Additionally, she has knitted a pair of mittens (the gray ones). She has also included toothpaste. I'm really lovin the blue and gray scarf. Look how the yarn changes colors...I really like that. she made two hats with the same yarn. Also notice the hats are a couple of different styles.
Really nice work Emily, many thanks and please keep up the good work!
Reviewing pictures in my designed and waiting to be assembled folder, I came across this afghan to be. It's one I didn't name at the time I designed it; but as I look at it this morning, Mountain Meadow came to me. Green for meadows, browns, little bit of purple for the haze that often appears over mountains, and some yellow...not much for sunshine?
It may take some doing, to find this in my stash since it's not named and since I've not been able to get downstairs to my stash in several months due to the broken foot; however.........am expecting to get the go ahead for minimal stairs today after my physical therapy, provided things go well.
As we're blogging in alphabetical order and today is letter M, thought I'd share this with you. There are 9 strips that will need to be edged and joined. I think it will require some adding on to make it an appropriate size to keep someone warm. These strips were donated as scarves some time back, but they are really not sized properly for scarves, so I thought this would be a good use of them. When I get donations that don't meet our needs (size, color, fiber wise), I try very hard to find another purpose or method of use so that the donation can still take place.
If you've not looked before, please notice the tabs across the top of the blog for each item we knit/crochet/loom and donate. Those tabs contain information necessary for our donations to meet the needs of those we serve. If you have any questions, please use the contact form in the right sidebar, leave a comment, or send me an email.

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.
