A friend and I volunteer at our local nursing home and we need yarn, embroidery floss, hoops, plastic canvas, and needles. So, if anyone has extra and would like to donate or has suggestions for where we can procure donations, please help. I almost forgot knitting needles and crochet hooks are needed as well.

Well Debbie, I would suggest you try Hobby Lobby. Find out if they would be willing to make a donation from their corporate office. You can also try other hobby stores in your area if you don't have a hobby lobby. Most companies can use the tax write off.
Your second option is ask the Goodwills in your area for donations. Some have hobby supplies and some don't (and I have been in many Goodwills so I know).
Another thing you can do is ask the local churches to request donations from their congregation for the materials you could use. Make sure when you ask the churches that they know you are looking for the craft supplies and not money.
I have lots of yarn I would love to donate where r u located
Put up signs in Nursing Home for donations from visitors. Put an add in the local paper. Hope this helps. Happy Easter! Karen :D
I have oddball yarn scraps if you are interested in them. They range from large balls to tiny balls of yarn.
Hi Debbie,
I realize you posted this message awhile ago. I use to do a lot of crocheting however, my husband and I are moving and I cannot take the yarn to our new home. I have boxes of yarn and would very much like to give it to someone who will use it for a good cause.
I just read this article for your yàrn that you don't need. I belong to a church crochet group. We consists of seventeen women that we crochet for homeless and people who are ill. We rely heavily on donations for our projects. If you still have the yàrn, please contact us. We need everything we can get. Thanks St. Peter and St. Paul church group
I'm putting together a list of organizations currently accepting yarn donations. This will go out to 15,000 knitters.
I am interested on your chrochet yarn. I have started a chrochet club at robstown texas high school and we are going to donated the blankets we make to the people in need
If you are still looking for yarn I would love to donate..
