About this Event

Blankets for Manchester & Manchester Wool and Yarn Meet up - 23rd October

Come join us at Idle Hands Coffee for an evening of crocheting, knitting & sewing squares together for Blankets for Manchester on the 23rd October.

Blankets for Manchester is part of CraftFoward and their Blankets for the World project, assembling blankets to donate to unhoused individuals via a partner charity.

We are currently collecting 20cm x 20cm squares. Blankets will be 100 x 140cm or 35 squares. Already assembled blankets would be preferred in the hope of distributing more blankets to people experiencing houselessness.

If you are planning on contributing less than 35 squares, you can also post 20x20cm squares of any yarn thickness and stitch pattern or bring them to this event - we can hopefully sew as many as we can (ends always weaved in please!)

The collection address is Manchester Wool and Yarn
66 Lower Hillgate
Stockport
SK1 3AL

All abilities are absolutely welcome. Yarn / needles / crochet hooks will be available to use for those that want to come and make with us on the night.
