Homeless Challenge-earning money to do good in my community
11 years ago
General
Im a catdog, if i bark, i also meow. So there!
Would really like to make some monies to buy supplies to make scarves and hats for the homeless and less fortunate. I have taken up the art of loom knitting and I want to continue to do good for my community.
At my local shelter and places where I see the homeless I see those suffering the cold weather and I thought it would be nice to help them by making hats, scarves, blankets and maybe even finger less gloves and leg warmers. Also at my dr's office they have a giving tree i'd like to add to. Im thankful for the warm shelter over my head, it will be good to help others be warm even if they dont have shelter. So I'm on a mission to make as much as I can by the 20th of Dec.
I have a set of round looms and some yarn but I'd really like to get the rectangle looms and lots more yarn. So many possibilities with loom knitting. All I can think right now is how much has been given to me this year and I really want to give back in a way that will fill me with pride and self worth.
So with that I'm willing to take offers with art. I have drawn a few things, links below. Also made special snowflake icons! I can only afford so much yarn, i really need this help if you can.

I appreciate any help with this task. I want to make at least 5 sets of scarves with matching hats.
If you would like to donate to this cause I would very much like that. Its roughly $5 for a skein of decent yarn. It takes about 2 to 3 skeins of yarn to make a 4 foot long scarf and just one skein to make a hat.
Progress updates with photos to come. Thank you for reading. Hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving.
