When was it? December 2013, I think. My friend, Heather Bullough, told me about a local crocheting service project I could get involved with. I LOVE to crochet simple items; it’s something I can do with my hands while I watch DVDs or listen to audiobooks (which are other things I LOVE to do).
This is a link to the project. I’ve participated for two years now and my donations have been received with so much enthusiasm I’m a convert for life.

Here are photos of my two donations.
June 2014–I donated 21 pairs of leg warmers.
June 2015–25 pairs this year. (I got so involved making teddy bears for Little Lambs Foundation that I slacked off on crocheting.)
“Teddy bears?” you ask. Let me show you.
A few friendly faces for Northern Utah’s foster kids.
Here’s the link for this adorable bear pattern:
