London to Paris

I wanted to share a couple of photos of how my brother is contributing to the hospice where Dad was cared for.  He's been participating in cycling and running events most weekends, and a big part of that has been drumming up sponsorship for Trinity hospice.  All his efforts are impressive, but perhaps the most significant so far is his bike ride from London to Paris. Here are some of the beautiful shots that he captured on his cell phone along the way...

Another Blanket to Hospice

Thank you to all who donated sock yarn squares - another blanket was donated to a local hospice this last month.  Porter Hospice in Littleton, Colorado was the recipient.  The sock yarn blankets are so light and colorful, and I cant tell you how thankful I am for your support providing these squares.  Look at how lovely this one turned out:

Card from hospice for the blankets

This was a very sweet card that the hospice sent, thanking us for the blanket.  My sincere thanks again to everyone that helped.

A couple of you have asked if I am still collecting squares.  Yes, I am :)
I'd love to collect more of the sock yarn squares.  The pattern we've been using is a free ravelry download:  Kraft tanken patches.  It is perfect for using up those scrappy odds and ends of sock yarn.

Thanks again for all the support.
Much love,
