Rolling Hills Afghan Ready to be Donated

Rolling Hills is now completed.  It's been laundered and is being blocked and drying, as we speak.  The colors aren't quite right as it's showing up here, my light must have been a bit wacky.

There's the more true colors before stripes were evened out, edge and joined.  Added several inches on each side as well to make it a better width.

Brickyard will be the next project.  Stay tuned.

Hope you're all keeping busy during our various shut downs, stay at home orders etc.  Please stay safe and well.

Crocheting Helps The Homeless

 Thank you Gail B from this wonderful donation of crocheted goodies.  Lots of scarves here in this picture.  Didn't have enough room to lay them all out, so you see most of them are folded up, but if your click to enlarge, you should be able to see the variety.  All the scarves are large enough to wrap around to be warmer.  Nice colors too.

Gail has also included some pretty cotton washcloths in her donation, along with hats nicely tagged with size, and a very pretty edged scarf.

Many thank for your thoughtfulness and your long time support of Ohio's homeless through Bridge and Beyond.  Please know you made a difference, an important one.

As always, please keep up the good work.

Personal Care so Very Much Needed by the Homeless

WOW!  look at all the goodies.  This is quite a haul of personal care items.  Toothpaste, toothbrushes, chap stick, shampoo, lotion, dental floss, wipes.  This will be very helpful to lots of folks.  Thank you Sarah S for this very thoughtful donation.

As you know things in our country are very serious, very scary right now.  We've been told to stock up, to stay in, to shelter in place, to not go to work or school etc.  It varies a bit state to state; but one group that must be very much in danger are our Homeless.  Many have on going health issues, many don't have the ability to wash their hands, or have sanitizes etc.  So, these personal care items I know will be very well received.

I hope everyone is taking care of themselves and others.  Many thanks Sarah and please keep up the good work.

Thank you Laura E for this generous donation of knitted goodies.  She's been very busy, as you can see.  She's knitted the famous corner to corner cotton wash cloths.......grandma's favorite, hats, and matching hats and scarves.  She's tied the sets nicely and labeled with size.......Wonderful!

She's also included socks, and personal care items.  If you click the photo to enlarge, please notice in the right lower corner two small first aid kits!  This is a great idea, thank you for thinking of that.

Crocheted Cotton Washcloths from Louisiana Help Ohio's Homeless

Sandie P from Louisiana has been keeping her crochet hook very busy!  Look at these wonderful crocheted cotton washcloths.  I LOVE the blue - green, makes me think of summer...the beach, perhaps the Caribbean.  Doesn't that sound nice right now as winter looms over us still.

Thank you Sandie for your long time support of Bridge and Beyond, I always look forward to your donations.  Extra thanks for taking the time to launder your cotton cloths, much appreciated.

Sandie often shows us how to do a particular stitch or tells us about new yarn she's purchased to test on her blog, so please do check it out.  Click Here for Sandie's profile and blog.
