October is traditionally the month we collect red, white and blue items for the VA in Minneapolis, and this year was no exception. We are always delighted to see the ample afghans you fashion for the mostly male patients at the VA. This year, you churned out 8 red, white and blue blankets and 1 shawl -- and we know they take a lot of time! We're waiting for another 1 or 2 before we drop items off in November. And there were a few you brought early in September.

You also brought 30 hats and 1 scarf - wow! Some are masculine colors for the VA and others will be distributed to other locations.

DID YOU KNOW - We're getting pretty close to an overall total of 3,000 items since Team Yarn was created. I bet we'll get there before the end of the year. AMAZING!!









SOMEONE FINISHED THEIR FIRST HAT!! Way to go, Lisa!!
