Asking my fiber family for help in crisis! YARN NEEDED!!
IFTTT newest submissions : crochetHoping the fiber community can come together and help me in this crisis! IN NEED OF YARN!!
A couple of weeks ago, we had some heavy rain that came on suddenly and caused a flash flood. We were out of town at the time and my yarn studio, which is in our finished basement, unfortunately took the most damage! I came home to my cubbies tipped over and submerged wool everywhere!! None of my yarn was saved! And I mean none! (Except my scrap bin that was on my desk) The water did damage to our home, totaled our second vehicle due to electrical damage, ruined our washer and dryer and our deep freezer and refrigerator that were in the basement as well. In the 10 years we’ve lived here, our basement has never gotten wet once! So needless to say, I was blindsided by this catastrophe! I am a knitwear and crochet designer and it is what I do for a living, so this is huge blow to our finances. I am asking all of my fiber friends for help! If anyone has any natural/animal fibers or macrame rope they don’t plan on using, and would like to donate it to help me get a start on building my stash back up so I can design again, I would forever be in your debt! I mostly design garments for women and small children, and I also design macrame. I don’t use acrylic yarn unless it is wool/acrylic or cotton/acrylic blend, but other than that, I am open to whatever! I will be in the position where I can possibly buy secondhand yarn for a low price soon, but as of right now, this flood has taken all of our extra finances and I am in no position to spend money on yarn! Yarn keeps me sane and I am lost if I am not designing! I hate asking anyone for anything like this, but I don’t know what else to do! I know that this community can really come together and help one another when necessary, so I figured I would turn to you ❤️ Thanks for reading!
