Unwanted wool/acrylic
A big THANK YOU to the three people who gave wool for our group of elderly ladies who knit blankets, hats, jerseys etc. for people in Romania and Moldova (through Mission Without Borders - a non-denominational charity). If anyone else has wool or acrylic/wool they no longer need, we would receive it gratefully. Small balls and odd colours no prohblem as we use them for stripes. Please email me on patgee123@hotmail.com if yoou can help, and I will arrange to collect it. Many thanks. Pat
