Suzanne Volpe has been scarf-bombing for an entire decade. 

The woman, who began the pastime she calls her passion in 2014, spends all year preparing for a winter of anonymous gifting around the streets of her Pennsylvania home. 

  • Suzanne and a team of volunteers leave scarves around high-foot traffic areas with a simple note that reads: "if you're cold, take this." 
  • Suzanne knits and crochets around 400 scarves every year to give away. She also makes some simple ones out of fleece, and takes donations from others close-by. 

💬 What she's saying: "I enjoy every bit of it," the 71-year-old shared. "I enjoy crocheting. I enjoy getting together with people to make things, and I love, love, love putting them out, especially when you see the reaction of some people. They're so appreciative."
