Needlework Monday - ‘Project Warm A Soul’ Complete!
Happy #NeedleWorkMonday everyone!! I was able to get my scarf out and around a tree last week to complete our Community Project #2 ’Project Warm A Soul’. My whole family was with me and my children were excited about what I was doing. They were like “so you’re just gonna leave it there for someone?” “Wow mom that’s so nice of you!” 😄 It was a very good talk about giving. Then my daughter asks,
but what if someone takes it that doesn’t really need it?
I told her all we can do is hope and pray that it ends up in the hands of someone in need. I explained to her that someone may personally know someone to give it to and that would be okay if they took it to them.
I decided to use my stash yarn for this project and ended up running out of orange. So I found this multi-colored yarn I had that still had neutral colors in it and attached it on both ends. I’m happy with the results but most importantly I know it will keep someone warm :)
Here are some pics I took before leaving it on the tree...
Then more of the tree pics...
I know a few of you are still working on getting your scarves out! I thank you for joining me in using your skills to give~ ❤️

Thank you so much! I’ve been really wanting to do things like this and now there is a community to do it with :). Thank you so much for your kind words and support. I am praying this will motivate others to do the same with their skills and talents. God has blessed me and my family with so much it’s apparent that we give back!
I have heard of @steemiteducation! Would this post qualify to use that tag?

Awesome I will do that! Thank you! 😊

Thank you very much! I really appreciate your kind and warm words and your support! It means a lot :) Many blessings to you~
it is my pleasure to finding someone like you who has good heart and good soul. I am so impressed that what you did for someone you don't know. Thinking others without expecting anything will build the peaceful future. :)
I am motivated by God and what He has blessed us with. I was moved to start giving back in this way. I am hoping this act will motivate others to do the same :)
It's so pretty the way the middle is orange and the ends are multicolored! So bright and cheery, perfect for cold weather! And so kind to leave it for someone in need...I love how you modeled charity for your kiddos :)
Did you stick around at all to see who took it?
Thank you so much! We were really glad to be able to share that teachable moment with our children :)
No we didn’t stick around to see. I just hope someone is enjoying it’s warmth :)
How sweet! I bet whoever finds it will LOVE it!! ♥
Thank you so much❣️ 😊
Great colors, the yarns work well together. And such a nice way to share your work to someone who needs it!
Thank you! I think they worked well together too! I was really happy about that :) Thanks for your support!
Beautiful idea, to send love and warmth to someone unknown. This is giving without wanting something back <3 And what a beautiful scarf you made, I especially love the variegated yarn.
And about your daughter’s questions: Whoever takes this scarf, will have a reason why he took it. Maybe he is not poor but without joy or he is inspired afterwards to work with yarn or to help others. I think you will always reach the right person with your gift <3
Thank you so much my friend! I love what you added. That is so true that whatever the reason someone may take it, they have their reasons. Thanks for bringing that to my attention! 😘
It's a marvellous idea @crosheille ! I am really glad that your family join you in the Warm a Soul initiative.
We have a weather warning here at the moment so I will quickly make a scarf and leave it in my town for a cold person to wear.
Thank you so much! I’m really glad they joined me too! It was a teachable moment and a really warm experience for our children. Yay that’s awesome!!! Please share with us once you’re finished!!!! 😃 That is wonderful of you!
That’s a real cool and colorful scarve that I am sure someone will love
Thank you so much!!! I sure hope they do! Thanks for your support~ 😊
Always a pleasure to visit
Oh, wow! How kind of you! I've left packages for the homeless under bridges and overpasses but never anything handmade! Hope whoever finds it can feel the love you put into it!
Thank you I appreciate your support. That is a very kind thing for you to do as well :)
So beautiful and what a wonderful thing to do!
Thank you @violetmed!!
