WANTED: Blue marble acrylic wool

Annessa from Stoke

Hi! Am trying my luck that someone may have the acrylic wool to sell or give away that is in the attached photos? We are wanting to finish a blanket and cannot seem to find more of this wool anywhere other than online overseas with silly postage prices. Thanks to anyone to who might be able to help :)

Say goodbye to tyre waste

Tyrewise

About 40% of the 6.5 million tyres Kiwis use every year are recycled, repurposed, or used as tyre-derived fuel. But the rest end up in landfills, stockpiled or dumped.

The good news is now there’s an easy solution to all that tyre waste. It’s called Tyrewise and is New Zealand’s first national tyre recycling scheme.

Tyrewise ensures that tyres in Aotearoa New Zealand are recycled or repurposed properly, saving millions from going to the landfill.

Find out more about the scheme online.
