A few of our very talented ladies are in the process of making comforting items for Wigan Hospital neonatal unit, but unfortunately we are running low on the wool needed.

If you have any spare "double knitting wool" that you no longer need, we would be very appreciative of any donations.

Thanks in advance. 💕
