Helping the Homeless Through Knitting and Crocheting.

Thank you  Barbara F for this thoughtful and very generous donation of crocheted goodies.  Wow...she's been busy.  Hats all nicely labeled with size, cotton washcloths always a hit, a gorgeous shawl (that's super soft), and yarn.  AND look again, she's also included an infinity scarf.  Wonderful colors and variety to make lots of folks happy, warm and feel cared for.  Nicely done Barbara!

Please keep up the good work, and as always know how much you are appreciated.

Crocheted Infinity Scarves and More

Thank you Karla T for your thoughtful crochet donation.  Kara has crocheted a hat, 2 scarves, and 4 fun mobius/infinity scarves.  The green infinity (top center) is such a perfect color combination for this time of the year.  Not sure I've seen that variegated combo before.  Definitely looks like fall.

Many thanks Karla and please keep up the good work.  You've made an important difference in the lives of those who will receive your donation.

Knitted Donations from Friends

Good friends unit to help the homeless.  Nancie D and Patty W long time friends in Texas have joined forces to knit for those in need here in Ohio through their donations to Bridge and Beyond.  Scarves, scarves, scarves.  Look at the variety of sizes and colors.  The nice solid dark colors are so perfect for our men folk, and brighter colors will work for the ladies.  My favorite might be the gray black combo in the middle of the picture.  But...do click folks to see them all.

Thank you ladies for your big hearts and for helping those in need here in Ohio.  Winter is above us here in Central Ohio with temps well below freezing of late.

Please keep up the good work, it is so very much appreciated.
