Blankets for Nottingham

 

Blankets for Nottingham is part of Blankets for the World which was dreamed up by Craft Forward a wonderful organisation based in London. The hope is that we put together as many blankets as possible to reach those in need. The need for blankets is greater than you may think.

In the past I have donated blankets to local hospices, MacMillan Nurses, Knit for Peace, animal shelters, Project Linus, local Homeless Shelters, and Operation Orphan. These unique hand crafted blankets, put together with love an kindness from volunteers, send a message of hope and comfort to all who receive them.

Can you help ? We need volunteers

We need volunteers who are willing to knit or crochet squares, that can be transformed into unique blankets. Ideally the squares need to be 20 cm x 20 cm but any size is gratefully received . Also any number of squares is accepted from 1 to 100 ! Go wild if you want to :) The more the merrier.

I cannot knit or crochet but want to help?

We are always in need of donations of yarn. Any amount of yarn is always welcome, it does not matter what type or what colour.

Where to send squares or yarn ?
