Fibre 4 Fibres update




I realised today that I haven't given you an update on what's happening with my fundraising for Myositis UK. I'm so sorry if you've been checking in on a Friday to see what prize is up for winning at the weekend. Because I'm in the shielded group as I'm considered very high risk of developing serious complications if I was to get COVID-19, I've been instructed to stay at home for at least the next 12 weeks. I therefore decided to put the weekly raffles on hold as I can't get to the post office and I don't feel that I can ask anyone to go to the post office to do something that would be considered as 'non-essential'. (I reckon I could argue that yarn is essential to my wellbeing though!) So for the time being, until I am allowed back out into the big wide world, there won't be any raffles. Please rest assured that I will be starting them up as soon as I can, and have lots of prizes to give away. My Just Giving page is currently at £2,680 and I will add to that with donations from any pattern sales over the  coming months. Thank you so much if you've bought virtual raffle tickets over the past few weeks. I am determined to reach my target of £10,000 so will be carrying on the raffles until I've done so. I will be shouting the relaunch of the Fibre 4 Fibres raffles from the rooftops, you can be sure of that! Take care in the meantime and keep well. xxx

Was just thinking of you today and wondering how it's going while sheltering. We are also at home for the foreseeable future. Now all my previous yarn acquisitions make me happy! Going to go have a look at your patterns, I'm in a sock making mood 🙂 Take care, and hugs to Flo!
