2008 Newborns in Need



I finally got my 2008 contribution finished for my donation to Newborns in Need. I got a late start this year, realizing in October that I had not crocheted one single blanket or hat for my donation. I like to use up my leftover colored yarn and use off-white as a contrasting color. The project involved going to Beverly’s and Walmart at least three times to pick up some off-white yarn.

I ended up with 20 blankets and 69 hats. They are in a big box and I am now awaiting a return e-mail from the coordinator for the best address to send them. On the website, there is only one chapter identified in California, and that is in Fountain Valley. I am hopeful there is a closer one.

The next project: Finish my box of hats to be donated to Warm Up America.
