Seems I'm always playing catch up. Got 2 scarves ready Ann and am putting in the mail either today or tomorrow. Just wanted to sing out. Took me longer then anticipated.

 

Such a good cause.

By way ladies...I'm having a give away, FREE Yarn! To help me celebrate an upcoming blog milestone (soon to hit 200 posts) on Bridge and Beyond (homeless charity). You don't have to be one who's donated knitted or crocheted hats, scarves or mittens to participate in the yarn give away. But, I never turn down helping hands.

Just wanted to double check, I have a Pennsylvania address for Compassionate Creations, but thought the webpage said something about Boston?

 

Do I have the right info ladies?

Thanks

Sending you a PM now......

[schcrochet]

Groan, was sent to the Pa address. Dang it, since I didn't know when I could get to the post office went ahead and mailed it from a previous note and pm. Wonder if it will come back to me, or with any stretch...it has the right zip code...wonder if that will work? Fingers crossed

[schcrochet]

Not that is matters now; but I also wondered why the change of names for the group. Used to send to Threads of Compassion in Illinois and wondered why the change in ady and name?

Sorry for the confusion. Compassionate Creations and Threads of Compassion are two seperate groups. Compassionate Creations started when I read about "TOC" and asked them about starting a group out here in MA. They were thrilled with the idea and CC was started...

Oh, I didn't realize it was 2 different groups. Thanks for the info, appreciate it.

Guess what!!! Your package arrived today! Not only did the Post Office get it to the right place because of the correct zip code, but they got it here really fast! Have a great day!

Hi Ann! Just wanted to let you know there are 12 scarves headed your way from MO as of this afternoon.

That's really funny. So how did it get to Ann in MA when it was sent to PA except for the correct zip code. That hysterical. Oh my goodness. Well the great news is they made it to Ann.

We'll all be scratching on our heads on that one forever. lol I guess because everything but the state was right? Somehow they were able to figure it out?? I'm still shocked.

Hi April! Well, I don't know how I missed your post the other day, so when your package arrived today it was a TOTAL surprise!!!! Thank you so much! I love the skein of Italia Yarn Bee! It's sooo soft! I've never had that before!

I'm so glad the box arrived, and so quickly!

 

I should have included a note, the "skein" of Italia is actually a scarf! LOL I thought I'd include the label since it suggests hand-washing. I do love the Italia for scarves, it's such a shame they discontinued it

That's so funny! I should have looked closer! It is so pretty though and it is a shame that it's discontinued!

Just a quick hello - Ann, I finally sent off a box of scarves and I don't know how many are in it I was so proud of getting so many in there that I forgot to count them and by the time I realised this, the box was all taped up I think it's 9 or 10, mostly children's scarves and a couple of long skinny scarves. My favourite one is the one that I had to take back out of the box because it was too big and too heavy ... so that'll go in the next box.

 

As always, it's gone by ship, so I hope it gets there for your September drop off.

 

And how are the rest of you ladies???

Hi Olivia! I'll keep an eye open for that box to arrive!

I'm enjoying a nice refreshing day here. The weather is lovely for a change. We are finally having a nice sunny day without the humidity. It's wonderful! Of course, I'm spending most of my time indoors, unfortunately:lol. Hope your tendonitis is getting better!

[pat54]

Good Morning Everyone. Hope everyone is doing well and others (Miss Crochet) are feeling better.

 

The weather today is really nice 82 to 85 low humidity which is great. I've been looking at scarf patterns so I getting itchy to start up again and I know the Ann will be needing them. Sorry I've been away but I have not had the energy to do any crocheting pass a square, and I've been even slow at that. It's just been way too hot.

Hugs,

Kym
