Wool for Ukraine

Marianne from Rangiora

People have been very generous but I still need more wool. I still have a number of packs to fill. In the meantime I thought I'd share with you the progress the Lions and friends knitters have made. One huge tub of packs has already gone out to the amazing knitters. We have had a wonderful donation from Countrywide wools in Auckland for this project and is a big part of the latest box of knitting packs. On the second photo you can see a finished baby jacket that has come back like a homing pigeon. When I get all the scraps of wool back hats to match will be knitted, as the packs contain 2 patterns, a jacket and hat, but some packs do not have quite enough wool for the hat. It's a big learning curve for me. This is a big thanks for our community for their help and donations of pure wool. Thank you all.

Tidying the house before going to bed each night, meditating upon waking or taking the stairs at work.

What’s something quick, or easy, that you started doing that made a major positive change in your life?

What word sums up 2024, neighbours?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

If 2020 was the year of lockdowns, banana bread, and WFH (work from home)....

In one word, how would you define 2024?

We're excited to see what you come up with!
