Rae's Mother Reaches out again

This scarf is made from the stash Rae passed along to me from her mother. I think she'd be pleased to know it's going to this project, The Bridge. The scarf measures 7 inches wide by 76 inches long.........so one can double up in it and keep warm. I love the variegated tans and white and have more of this yarn that will also be used for charitable purposes.

We had snow yesterday, though am happy to report it didn't stick. Colder today than yesterday, though folks PLEASE keep those knitting needles and crochets hooks busy. The need is great.

**have had some technical issues, but have the mileage widget working again; so have crocheted/knitted .65 miles with yarn from Rae's Mother's Stash. Wish I could change the wording on the widget.

Like The Eveready Bunny!

Like The EverReady Bunny, our Bunny keep going and going and going. Look at these darling donations. From left to right, 3 knitted hats, crocheted hat with double yarn ? (I think), with a crocheted hat with ties beneath it. To the right warm knitted mittens.

Bunny's blog is in my sidebar, please hop over to her blog and tell her how awesome she is.

I doth my Hat

4 crocheted (I think the two goldish colored hats are suede?) hats from Chizoba in Baltimore. Welcome to our group and many thanks for the helping hands. You may not know Stella (as a newbie to the group), but she's not camera shy; in fact she can be a bit of a camera hog. Oh Stella, how she loves to try on hats and scarves.

Again many thanks for your thoughtful donation, it is so truly appreciated. I will get the hat back from Stella (when's she's asleep), and it will go to those in need.

Pick a Color! Something to be Thankful for

Pick a color, if you can. So many to choose from. Karen and Frank have done it again!!



Look at this mound of wonderful goodness. Hats from Frank in every color one can imagine. Forty (40) of them to be exact. Frank you are awesome! Frank knits his many hats on a round loom. Karen has added 10 neck gators/warmers that are also knitted on a loom, as well as 2 crocheted scarves. All are fabulous and so nicely done. Many many thanks to you both.

What am I Thankful for this Thanksgiving? For 1, wonderful people like you all who make it possible for us to help those who have less than we do. I also posted something else to be Thankful for on my Travel Blog.

Socks and Scarf AND Blog Anniversary!

Finished another scarf. This is tweedy, and crocheted. It's smaller than I like for the men and women under the bridge, so will put this in the bag for one of the two free clinics. The yarn is a skein from Rae's Mother's stash. If you missed reading about it, click here. Also please notice the ongoing counter in the sidebar; where I'll be keeping track of the donations made possible through Rae donating her Mother's yarn to me.

The socks, hubby decided it was time to buy socks so these 11 pairs now in the bag for the men under the Bridge.

Still trying hard to spread the news of our group and it's cause. All help in that regard is appreciated.

Thank you Bunny, Hats

Always fun to see what Bunny comes up with next. Look at all these hats. The soft muted colored hat is knitted, all the others are crocheted. Stella is wearing one that I believe is made with double strands? I separated these hats based on size, adding the larger ones to the bag for the bridge, and the smaller ones to the bag for the clinics. As always Bunny's work is awesome.

Hugs for the help, Bunny.
