CAN YOU HELP!!!
We are a group of ladies who knit and crochet blankets, jumpers, hats, scarves and mittens/gloves for people in Eastern Europe who live under war conditions. Our work goes to Romania (the poorest country in Eastern Europe), Moldova and the Ukraine to help those who are in desperate need.
If you have any left-over wool that is surplus to your requirements, we would love to have it as we can make use of it - even small quantities are useful – we don’t waste anything.!!
If you can help, please call me (Pat) and I will arrange to collect it. My number is 021-057-0371.

Summer’s coming, and holidays are on the horizon … should we be focusing on the future rather than the past quarter? Or is this dip in the road a real concern?
