Hi if you could send website details I’ll pass it on to my crafter friends. Thanks
The patterns are on Makingforchaity.co.uk
And people have to email
communications@beatsoncancerchsity.org
for the address of where to send them .
PattyK I think there is a knitting pattern but better to use cotton yarn so it is not too stretchy . I have ordered some for a couple of pounds .
Gemmary it’s on Beatson cancer charity Twitter page . It’s public . I don’t use it myself but was able to access it .
If not I can ask for a better link .
. Just thought it might be of some interest .

Hope you don’t mind this add on …

"If there are any crafters or knitters out there, we patients need your hands...
"Wishaw General and the Beatson have run out of bags to cover syringe drivers, meaning we patients have to walk about holding these drivers and at home (etc) it making showering and stuff more difficult.
"So if anyone likes to craft, sew, or knit and can make bumbag-style bags with a strap to hold string drivers, Wishaw General and the Beatson would absolutely welcome your donations.
I’ll retry posting
