Charity Auction Longies

At the start of the month I auctioned a longies custom slot off with 100% of the proceeds going to the Cystic Fibrosis Trust. The winning bid was for a fabulous £51, making a total donation of £64 when gift aid was taken into account *wootles*


The winner chose this scrummy organic merino yarn, which was hand dyed by my friend Babylonglegs in her "Ragdoll" colourway.

I added some purple trim for a nice bit of contrast, and the pocket for toddler sized hands to stuff all those twigs, leaves, and bits of biscuit for nibbling on later....
Lots of custom work booked in for January so watch out for updates in the New Year. I'm lucky enough to be working some handspun yarn into a soaker, worthy of an update all of its own I reckon!
