Today I'll show you charity crochet projects that have moved out of the house that They already live with someone else or will in the future as intended.
At left are the chemo hats that Rockford Crochet made for a local woman who lost her hair due to cancer treatments. The ones I made are on the bottom and can be seen in a previous post when they still resided in my home.
Below are the items that me and my friend donated on Tuesday the 18th which will help people in the surrounding community also. What do we see there? A crocheted hat, two winter scarves, dish cloths, shampoo, toothpaste, Irish Spring with Aloe soap bars that I had a lot of, cups that I didn't use, crackers that I got from the restaurant where I last dined, plastic tableware and straws accumulated over time. The two bags on the right are filled with clothes that I chopped up to transform into cleaning rags along with a number of crocheted cloths that I made a couple years ago to use up leftover yarn.
It's good that I have the photo to remind me of what is gone now so I don't think it's still here and search for it the next time I want to start a donation pile.
The donations nicely consolidated on the porch waiting to be picked up by the woman who made me aware of the needs of the organization that will distribute the items.
This is an Aran Fleck scarf that I made a long time ago using half double crochet stitches. Maybe the second longest scarf I've made. Thought it would be good for a man. That stitch pattern took a long time and I'm glad to not see that scarf around here anymore as a reminder.
Today I started a brown winter beanie for my new eating buddy. I haven't decided what color I'll do the stripes in. Thinking Aran Fleck.
