Donate Yarn Scraps
Ever have scraps of yarn leftover from finished projects, and don't know what to do with them? Well... Donate them to March of the Blanketeers, to be used in hats, bears, and blanket squares! Squares get whipstitched into blankets, and the finished items are given to Hospitalized; babies, children, and teens! You will help the US Pediatric, and NICU patients, and the Earth! Every bit is used; it can even be used as stuffing for the bears, if it's too small to work with.
