Ohio....Counting, here's 11 more

Hi all,

Hoping to get a few more things done; as there's still room in the box. Like it to be full when I send it off...thought it would be with this donation...not quite though.

All going to Caring House in Michigan, Battered Womens Shelter. 5 Hats (4 teen-1 baby), 4 pair of slippers (2 baby, 2 teen-adult), 1 poncho, 1 vest.

More to Clount

Slippers and blue baby hat were added to personal care items and fleece items (fleece items weren't hand made), and sent out day before yesterday to a shelter for Battered Women in Michigan, Caring House though the group, Crafters in the Attic.

First pair of slippers I've made; adapted Bev's pattern and used 2 rectangles that were in my mish mosh pile.

Items completed, boxed and ready to head to post office

Going back over notes and have found where to mail a few of my items. The blue and white baby ghan is heading to Marine Corps Kids, along with the 4 hats.

The 10 squares (6 inchers) are going to PatrioticAfghans. They'll be used for our soliders families once joined with others.

So this particular collection of crocheted items all have a military theme.

(so thats a count of 15)

More Chemo Hats

I donated 5 more chemo hats to the Danbury Hospital yesterday (through my crochet guild). I made most of them holding 2 strands of yarn together and a P hook, so they worked up very fast and should be very warm to wear.

It's been a long time

...since I posted. I got a new job, and my time on the computer has been severely curtailed. However, I have been knitting. Here is a brief update.

I also completed about a dozen squares for Warm Up America.

It's great to see all the good works still going on here. Keep up the great job, everyone!

5 Chemo Hats

I have finished 5 chemo hats so far this year. These will be donated tomorrow to the Danbury Hospital through my crochet guild. I should get one more hat made tomorrow at the guild meeting. I will try to remember to take a picture, and I will post when it is finished.
