We have partnered with Rape Crisis Cape Town Trust to donate handmade dolls to them. These dolls will be given to rape survivors during counseling at one of their centres.
Any doll pattern may be used.
Dolls may be dropped of at our shop in Simon’s Town, or couriered to us at:
Natural Yarns (Pty) Ltd
120 St George’s Street
Simon’s Town
Cape Town
Our closest PUDO is Longbeach Mall if you would prefer to send dolls via PUDO.
If you would like to knit the “Love, Bunny” pattern by Esther Braithwaite, you may find the pattern on Ravelry.
The Hoppy Days Bunny crochet pattern is also available on Ravelry.
For your convenience, we have put together yarn kits for purchase (including the pattern) – At least 4 bunnies can be knitted with these kits.
