Scarves For Homeless Teens

--by JuneBug, posted Apr 8, 2013

It is so cold where I live right now!

I was starting to get a bit bored being inside so I e-mailed a friend to see what she had been up to. She told me she was on a dead-line to come up with several scarves and gloves to take to an organization she volunteers with who help homeless teenagers.

I don't know how to crochet gloves but offered to make as many scarves as I could to help her meet the dead-line and help keep some homeless kids warm. I have left-over yarn so this is such a good idea!

I have three finished so far and have many more to go, but all in a very good cause!
