Hello to the PATCH Community!&nbsp;&nbsp;
I hope to get help to&nbsp;find&nbsp;the woman who bought my Grandma's handmade crocheted golden mustard yellow color&nbsp;shawl last weekend.&nbsp;
I was a booth seller at the Pacheco Community Center parking lot rummage&nbsp;sale last Sat 4/20/24 from 8-2pm.
 I was still setting up and feeling overwhelmed with emotions&nbsp;trying to clear out many sentimental&nbsp;family items.
Sadly, I&nbsp;sold my Grandma's handmade crocheted knit Shawl. It's a short open front shawl/poncho style,&nbsp;golden mustard yellow color yarn with 2-4 crocheted buttons on the front.&nbsp;I don't know&nbsp;why I sold it,&nbsp;but I greatly regret it and&nbsp;really HOPE to find the woman who bought it, so I can buy&nbsp;it back. If it helps...this person also bought a set of vintage orange and blue floral&nbsp;Twin size Cannon bed sheets. I don't have a photo of the shawl as it&nbsp;was in&nbsp;a storage box from my mom's house prior to this sale.&nbsp;
I'm&nbsp;so very sad about this, now more than ever after my mom's passing.&nbsp;
If you know someone who attended this sale, please share this.
I truly HOPE the woman who bought my Grandma's Shawl will find this article and contact the Pacheco Community Center.&nbsp;Thank you so VERY much.
Please contact the Pacheco Community Center&nbsp;at 925-676-8877
