Fibre 4 Fibres Giveaway preview 90


I can't quite believe that this is my final raffle prize in my Fibre 4 Fibres fundraising for Myositis UK. It's my 90th raffle and I have been completely overwhelmed by the generosity of the woolly community, both in donating prizes for my raffles and also for buying virtual raffle tickets each week. When I first started my fundraising, I had just designed my Good Striations blanket using the stitch pattern to represent muscle fibres and decided to donate the proceeds from pattern sales to raise some money for Myositis UK. I set what I thought was a pretty ambitious target of £1000! Then things started to snowball and I have somehow managed to raise over £26,000! As my fundraising started with my Good Striations blanket, it seems fitting that it should end with it too. So this week's prize includes a yarn kit of Bellissima and Bambino yarn which has been donated by Stylecraft Yarns, along with a tote bag and key ring. There is enough yarn to knit the blanket, but if you are a crocheter rather than a knitter, then you can easily use the yarn to crochet yourself a beautiful blanket too! There is also a printed pattern leaflet - these have all sold out now in the shops and I only have a couple left, so it's like gold dust! - and a pair of circular needles to knit the blanket with. As well as this, I will give everybody who donates to this final week, one free pattern from my designs. You can see them all here. (Ravelry link) Thank you to Stylecraft for donating the yarn kit.

















I'm sure that you know the score by now, but I'll tell you how to enter anyway! You have a chance to win all these gorgeous prizes for a minimum donation of £2! Are you tempted to try your luck? Here's everything you need to know. This giveaway will run this coming Sunday 9th January, closing at 23:45. To enter, go to my JustGiving page here and buy your virtual raffle tickets by donating £2 or more. £2 gets you 2 tickets, £3 gets you 3 tickets, £5 gets you 5 tickets and so on. The more you donate, the greater your chance of winning. You will need to leave your Instagram or Ravelry name, or tick the box to share your email address with me when you make your donation, so that I can contact you if you are the winner. This is really important as I have no way of knowing who you are otherwise. Each week, I still get donations where no name or email is left, so if that person's number comes up in the random number generator, I have no idea who it is! All your donations go the Myositis UK to help fund research into this incurable muscle disease, so thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your support. Every single donation is important. Let's see what we can raise on this final raffle! Thank you and stay safe! xxx
