bex Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 (edited) a request from me to everyone out there to help me on this one, i am wanting to make a blanket for mikey, our little man, but i am low on the nacessity, wool, and i am asking you kind people out there if you would have a look to see if you can find any old wool you might have lying around in your lofts, cupboards or boxes. i not bothered what the wool is, what colour it is or how much there is, any would be appreciated and used. i make blankets for lots of people but this is going to be a big one, not the baby blankets i have been making. what i thought would be nice was to make it for him, hopefully by xmas, and give it to him as a pressie from all of us. i will post a photo soon of what i mean. would anyone like to help? PM me if you have some and need my addy Edited June 20, 2011 by bex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bex Posted June 20, 2011 Author Share Posted June 20, 2011 i need as much as, its going to be a single size blanket, an average ball is 200g, i need a minimum of 20 balls to make it nearly big enough. i already have a few but nowhere enough, and i not bothered what colours but the more colourful the better for him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susieque Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Sorry Bex, I've got loads of other kind of 'making' stuff - paper, card, fabric, ribbons etc etc but not wool. Well I have got some but it's for making a blanket for my daughter I'm afraid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 find me a link on ebay and pm me your address. I ll buy you a tenner s worth bex. Its for a good cause and well done you That is exactly what I was going to do but can't find 200g balls of wool. Can only find 100 or 50g balls. There are loads on ebay. Bex give us a link to what you want and I will buy some and get it sent to yours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Paul I believe the 100g and 150g balls will be ok, I think Bex just used the 200g balls as an means of example of how much wool she needs! Your all good en's ain't ya! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
