Look at all the great knitted yummies from Trudy. Some pretty cute sets here, with matching scarves and hats, and the cute neck warmer and hat. Very nice Trudy. Kids are gonna love being warm and looking good!

The gold hat with the garter stitch at the bottom is darling, is that a pattern you can share?

Thank you Alma

crocheted hat and scarfStella, once again wrapped up in warmth. She's modeling a blue crocheted cap and a nice big variegated brown tweedy style scarf from Alma. These will be so appreciated by our folks under the bridge. Many thanks Alma. And don't forget she's a new blogger, so stop in for a visit.

Scarfin it UP, think that's what the Smurf's would say

Scarfin it up! With this donation of 30 scarves, I think we may need to add that word to the dictionary. Seriously, look at the fun designs and colors. Chris made 26 fleece scarves and 4 crocheted scarves. Chris is a friend of our Dear Beth (crochetprincess). What fun variety she found with her fleece. Stella is wrapped up in a super soft lavender crocheted scarf.

Thanks bunches Chris, wish you had a blog so we all could come visiting. I'll send along my thanks to Beth.

More Love from the Hook

pink hatcrochet hats and scarvescrocheting for the homeless
More Love from the Hook. Pouches and boxes from all around continue to prove to me how much love there is the hands of those who knit and crochet. Such a fantastic group of people. Here we have 2 more hat and scarf sets (blue and green--pink and blue), a rose and gold hat, darker navy scarf, and pink and rose hat from Trudy. Love how our numbers are climbing. Each represents another person touched by loving hands and warmed in a very special way.

More New Members!

Alma is a new member, and sent this donation in a week ago. It got mixed in the wrong folder on my computer and I just found it today. Sorry for the delay posting it. Welcome to the group and many thanks Alma. All items are crocheted. Not only is Alma new to our group, but she's new to blogging. Let's go visit and encourage her to blog and enjoy herself. Remember when we were new at blogging, trying to learn how things worked and excited to get comments. Spread The Bridge Love. I've added her to our blog log.

Hats, Hats, love for the head!

Thanks Bonnie for these 13 crocheted hats and scarf. I love the way you've added both texture and color to make a trim on the edge. Very nice. Your donation will keep 13 more people warmer. Awesome.

Stay tuned for donations from Alma and Trudy

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?
