Colorful Crocheted Scarves Donated to Help Others

 Thank you Ann M for this thoughtful donation of colorful scarves.  Please remember to click to see details with her stitches.  These scarves vary in size and color.  Some will be suitable for the young kids, some teens and adults as well.  Nice variety Ann.  The solid wide green scarf will be nice for men folk.  A little something for everyone here.

Below you see two small baby sized afghans.   Thankfully, we seldom have need for items for the wee ones, so for the time being I'll lay these aside.  I will add to both to make larger afghans, and this will give me a head start to build from.  LOVE the bright pink, lots of possibilities there.  Stay tuned folks, as I'll repost when complete.

How to Travel with Yarn

Spotted this a while back and thought I'd share it with you.  There was no explanation when I saw the photo, but I wondered....suction cup?  Anyone spotted anything like this in a store?  I think it would be a handy item to have.

What say you?

Crocheted Hats and Scarves for Ohio's Homeless

Thank you Joy D, my old high school friend for this awesome and very generous donation of crocheted goodies!  Joy and I go back a long way, clear back to junior high days.  She crochets beautifully.  I love all the nice dark solid colors that are suitable for men or women.  She's been busy as you see.  I needed to take 2 pictures so I could spread out her whole donation.  Scarves are nice and big so they'll be able to be really wrapped around for added warmth!  Hats are nice and think.  

I always marvel at how tightly and evening Joy is able to crochet, being able to do that really makes the items super warm.

Many thanks for your thoughtfulness Joy, and many thanks for your long standing friendship!
