Donating Socks for Homeless, Important

Thank you Tara B for your monthly shipment of socks!  I've said before how smart I think she is for setting this up.  She saves herself the time to shop, and the cost of shipment.  She set up an ongoing order through Amazon and they ship directly to me at and no shipping cost to her.  Brilliant!!

Temps here have indeed turned the corner so having warm clean dry socks for folks living in the elements and or shelters is truly important.  Warm dry feet can be a huge factor is whether someone remains healthy or get's sick.

Many thanks Tara, and please know how much good you're doing.  AND how much it's appreciated.

Please stay safe everyone, these are difficult times.

Scarves Galore for Ohio's Homeless


Thank you "anonymous" for this thoughtful donation.  Look at this lovely scarves.  Please click to enlarge the picture so you can see the variety of stitches used and how much texture is involved.  A wonderful color selection that is suitable for men or women.  The scarves can make such a difference in keeping someone warm.

Let me take a minute and explain "anonymous".  It's perfectly fine to be anonymous on the blog, but you must include your name and email when you mail donations, so that I have records, and the ability to make contact should there be a need.  This individual did that.  Though it's been a good long while we used to have some issues with donations showing up and I had no means of making contact with the individual, so my policy had to be changed accordingly.  

Many thanks for your generous donation, and please keep up the good work.  I hope everyone is staying safe from this ever spreading virus.

Hats and More for Ohio Homeless

Woot Woot!  Look at this awesome donation from our good friend and long time supporter Sandra R.  20 Soft warm knitted hats.  Please click to see how many different styles she has included in part 1 of 2 box donation!!  Each hat nicely tagged with size.  What a nice color mix with some more suitable for women, some more suited to men; and some can nicely work for either gender.


AND, drum roll for box #2.  A bakers dozen (13) more hats.  Again a good variety in size, color and style.  Additionally she crocheted 6 scarves.  I'm not sure why stitch she used to get the 3 two color ones on the right hand side, but it's very interesting.

Many many thanks Sandra for this generous donation.  Hope you're staying safe down there in the sunshine state.  If you've got any extra sun to spare, box it and send it north, Please and Thanks!

As always, keep up the good work.  It makes such a difference, you make such a difference.

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?
