A great big THANK YOU!!
I just want to say a great big THANK YOU to those of you who responded to my request last week for wool for our group of ladies who knit or crochet blankets, jumpers hats, scarves, etc for very needy people in Romania, Moldova and the Ukraine. Because of your generosity, our ladies are thrilled to be able to keep on knitting/crocheting/sewing etc. as the needs are great and ongoing. As a result we are constantly needing wool to keep on working. Once again, our grateful thanks. If you have any spare wool in the future, or know anyone who might be willing to donate some to our cause, then please don’t hesitate to ring me and I will collect or arrange collection. With kind regards and grateful thanks.
