Crocheting to Help Ohio's Homeless

Thank you Gayle T for this thoughtful donation of crocheted goodies.  Gayle has crocheted two scarves in nice dark solids, which are always a winner...and she's also crocheted cotton washcloths.    I really like the green and white variegated ones, very pretty.  Reminds of Spring and I've already begun the count down for spring...so not a winter person.

We've had lots of rain, some freezing rain, some snow and a good many days of below freezing temperatures...which is why, even though it's only Dec 2nd, I'm looking forward and counting down to Spring already.  Check out my new count down widget here on the blog.

**The counts on our progress bars are current. 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.

Matching Hats and Scarves for Ohio's Homeless in Need

Thank you Phyllis G for this wonderful donation of matching hat and scarf sets.  This are super soft and warm and will so appreciated by those who receive them.  Fantastic colors!  I also love how nicely you paired them.  As you can see (be sure to click to enlarge the picture so you can see details), the hats and scarves are nicely joined together so the set looks very much like you're giving a gift!  What a wonderful idea.  

Folks this donation was suppose to be posted a while back.  I had it in que, or so I thought to be published while I was out of town and for some reason the date on the schedule was goofy, so it never got posted.  I spotted it while looking through drafts here this am.  Sorry for the delay in sharing this lovely donation from Phyllis with you.

As I type this new post up to share with you, it's 21 degrees out, with some light snow flurries...so, indeed the winter has hit us here in Central Ohio and your warm knitted and crocheted and loomed items are needed by our Homeless Friends.  I hope you're all busy with hook and yarn, or needles and yarn.

Happy Thanksgiving


If you're traveling for the holiday, safe travels to you and yours.  I hope as you're letting the food digest today, you'll have yarn in hand busy working on something for someone else.  I'll be toting an afghan I'm working on to the family gathering and plan to work on it, after the feast...while others are watching football.  How about you?

Sneak preview (it's quite a bit larger than this now, just haven't taken a recent picture).

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?
