SURPRISE Bonus Major Prize 7 - Anthology Throw

Friday 28th Oct

UPDATE: Congratulations to our prize winner Liane Hulme.

We are also thrilled to announce this very epic surprise Major Prize, this stunning 'Anthology Throw', knit by Tracey of Knitting On the Float. It is a truly special throw and the most perfect finale to our Major Prize Pool.

We can just imagine it being the most cosy pink hug for anybody going through breast cancer treatment at the moment.

***

Here's the lovely back story:

When Helen Stewart of Curious Handmade released her first Knitvent 2022 pattern, the 'Anthology Throw' last night it was love at first sight. We always had a feeling this was going to be a beauty of an advent design from the clues Helen had shared.

Then the lovely Tracey of Knitting on the Float, one of Helen's amazing test knitters and hostess of the 'Knitting on the Float' YouTube podcast shares her gorgeous gradient pink test knit version photos and you had to pick our jaw up off the floor. It is simply pink perfection.

But then Tracey messages and offers it as a fundraiser prize! To say we were BLOWN AWAY by this very special and generous donation was an understatement. Tracey is such a beautiful knitter and given the scale and size of this project, know she has spent many, many hours creating it - making this donation truly something extra special. Thank you so, so much Tracey. There are not enough words. Xxx

Tracey has used some glorious Wool Barn yarns in her throw and will be talking all about it in her Vlogtober on the Float episode today on her YouTube channel.

Please help us reach our fundraising goal of $20K by making a donation for breast cancer research today.

We are proud to be part of such a caring and supportive community and together able to make a difference.

Make sure to also check out the prizes and donate to the Canadian Fundraiser (link also in profile) being hosted by our Team Hope & Sunshine partners Thread & Maple and Grocery Girls Knit.

Well done for organising this amazing fundraiser! With my mother in law loosing her battle and now my step mother fighting the battle against breast cancer I can’t thank you enough. I’ve made many donations to the NBCF but this is by far the most exciting (it involves yarn, patterns, bucket bags and pouches. What’s not to love!) Thanks again 💗

This is by far one the best fundraiser ideas ever. I have donated to The National Breast Cancer Foundation a few times, especially after having benign tumour removed. But to put together the beautiful suite of yarns to re-engage me with donating again - thank you!
