Wish List
Another way to support our troops.
We are knitting and crocheting slippers for the military--- The other ladies call their slippers "Toastie Toes" --- I am just learning so I call my slippers --- "Slippers of Assorted Sizes"
Kathie at Fort Riley assures me they need all sizes. :-)
If any of you have extra yarn please send it to:
Nebraska Troop Support
515 E Donegal St.
O'Neill, NE 68763
---or leave it in O'Neill at Tia Zia or 515 E. Donegal. (my house). If you would like to join us making slippers ---email beth@inebraska.com for the pattern.
Another item we need is paper back books to send in the Care Packages. These can be mailed or left at the same address as the yarn.
