#Showthelove Campaign
Members felted, crocheted and knitted green hearts to support this campaign which was displayed in Grayswood village.
One of our members has sheep and kindly donated their fleeces which we processed and dyed to use for the majority of the felted hearts.
One of our members used her newly-rekindled knitting skills and story-telling abilities to make a knitted telephone kiosk and accompanying story for her grandson with a lovely environmental message included.
