Third Hat for Charity

This is the third hat that I have completed for Warm Up America and Save the Children.  As promised it is a boys cap.  I did it with green denim yarn that did not show up very good when I took the picture.  I really need a better camera.  Hopefully I will get one for Christmas.  Anyways, the hat only took me about two hours to make so I think I will make another one with the blue denim looking yarn as well.

Drinking Coffee for a Good Cause

Tommorrow night at Jumping Java which is my favorite coffee house there's going to be a fundraiser for Transformation Life Center which is a Christian center that helps men with addictions.  There's going to be live music, and a part of the proceeds for all of the drinks sold will go to the center.  This would be a great opportunity to get out and enjoy time with friends and family and support a cause at the same time.  As you all know I am a recovering alcoholic this is a cause that I think is very worthy.  Please come out and get a coffee or smoothie.  You can check out Jumping Java on facebook.  http://www.facebook.com/pages/Grand-Haven-MI/Jumpin-Java/153975304616848?ref=search&v=wall
I will be there tommorrow night and I hope to see you here too!

Second Hat for Charity

So, here's the second completed hat for the Save the Children and Warm Up America charity.  This one took me a little longer than the last one to finish because I completely forgot how to make a pom pom.  It has been a few years since I made a pom pom so it completely slipped my mind on how to make one, but I am glad for the refresher.
The next hat that I am going to make will be for a boy and will be a completely different style.

The First Hat for Charity

Here is the first hat that I have completed for the charity challenge.  It only took me one and a half hours.  I just used old yarn that I had laying around the house.  Finally, I have something I can do with all of that left over yarn!

I also want to include a picture that I took last night on my lunch break at work.  It had just gotten done raining and I was able to capture the prettiest rainbow ever.  It is good to know that God still keeps his promises.  What a picture of hope!  Maybe this was God's way of telling me that my hat project is a good idea?
