In a good way! :) I love helping out. I am on the shy side so face to face interaction ( if i don't know the person well) make me uneasy. So making items and sending them to a worthy cause is perfect for me. Since I didn't receive many hats ( none actually ) for the University of Vermont School of Medicine and  Norris Cotton Cancer Center I have to make more than I have to send out . Was hoping 10 from each team member . I am waiting for a box of hats from one member....  Praying it comes in this week. And I signed up to make socks for a local RI homeless shelter called House of Hope.  They run the state’s largest men’s night to night shelter. they need hats, scarfs, mitten/gloves and socks.  Here is the Ravelry  thread   if you interested in helping out.                                          ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~...
