Making Hats

Nice idea Carol mirjam

You are right Hobby knitter when you make them find a way to donate them yourself to whomever you want !!!!! you deserve to recieve your thank you . mirjam

Hello mirjam and all. As you see I don't post much and I forgot to put my name. Yes I believe that anyone that donates should get the pat on the back. I recall another person that was heading to donate many hats to their local homeless shelter, another person said that she would go do it for her. Well that 2nd person took and sold them What a blow to the head that was.

Me too although I'm knitting. Patternworks.com has a project going to donate 1000 chemo hats crocheted or knitted. I bought enough yarn to do two hats, but haven't started yet. I think the deadline is September.

Hallo Roberta, sorry i did not recognize you in the first post :>:>:>:>

I too, had the strange experience of donating something, to somebody who claimed to have lost everything and than she sold it all ... It made me feel a bit odd. As odd as the the time somebody called me to congratulate me on a `prize i won`, i said i have not won any prize , she insisted she saw my Artifact and that it won a prize , I traveled to see it, and in fact it looked very much like something i would/could do ,,, but it was not under my name ,,,,, Aha , the name was familiar , it was a lady i helped with her art studies in my house ,,,I confronted her , she claimed it was `not her fault taht she had the same ideas like mine ` . i did not report her ,,, but told her not to ask for my help any more . mirjam

Hallo Kylou How kind of you And welcome here , as i don `t remember having seen your name here before . mirjam

Thanks for the welcome. I mainly lurk. I feel like I know all of you though, especially on RCTN.

Did you write often in RCTN ? i apologize if i don`t remember you please share with us /me details about your art & craft Since you wrote there as well , i undersatnd that you are embroidering ? Do you make your own patterns or do you use ready mades ? mirjam

No, I'm definitely a lurker. I have cross stitched, needlepointed, crocheted and knitted in the past. I'm currently on a knitting kick, although I just ordered a cross stitch kit yesterday that I just had to have. I don't generally like kits but I couldn't find the pattern anywhere else. I lurk on the newsgroups mainly to get ideas for projects. I also enjoy seeing the "discussions" 8-)
