  20. I’ve done step one and two for this entry. I have been learning to crochet the past year and love using Red Heart yarn. Why? Because a lot of it’s made in the United States but I’ve been finding it difficult to find any Red Heart locally.

  32. I voted and I changed my profile picture with the team badge. On my profile it’s the badge, but my thumbnail by my name on here seems not to have changed! I have the team badge on my regular Facebook and on my business page, too. Now, I’m trying to figure out how to share the blog. Will do that, too.

  33. I’ve done 1 and 2. I was shot when I was 12 and it resulted in permanant paralysis from the armpits down. I do have my arms and hands though! I use them every day to crochet as my form of physical and mental therapy. Being restricted to the limited income that SSI provides I don’t get to spend much on enjoyable things but Red Heart is always there for some good inexpensive yarn to work with. I would love love love to win this prize pack!

  34. I do not know if I’ve done everything right. A). I voted. B). I downloaded the team badge and have it as my profile picture on both my regular Facebook and my business page. C). I have shared a couple of contest posts from a couple of pages, but I don’t know if I have shared the exact post I am supposed to share. Help. Can someone give me the link to the post I am supposed to share, please?
