I’m catching up with blog posts that happened when I was away – here at last is something else I can do for the refugees facing Winter. I saw it first on Coastal Crochet– thank you for bringing it to my attention.
A friend of mine has put out a request to all knitters and crocheters who would like to help the refugees at Calais. She needs 12″ squares made IN A HURRY and sent to her which she will then sew together to make blankets for the refugees. The weather is starting to get cold and blankets will make a huge difference to them.
She is hoping to send the first parcel out with a contact who is going on 28th November and would ideally like the squares by 20th in order to sew them together in time.
If you have a couple of hours to whip up a square, please help.
The squares all need to be 12″ in size, made from acrylic yarn and in any colour or pattern you wish – use up some scraps and help a great cause at the same time.
Here’s one I crocheted…

Isn’t it! I’ve nearly completed 2 x 12″ squares. It feels good to be able to do SOMETHING, no matter how small. xx
