HELP THE PUPPIES Rosy Pink Ribbon Cloche CROCHETED EFA
Description
This Rosy Pink Ribbon Cloche began as a sleeve to a sweater that my Japanese grandmother knitted. Before the sleeve was attached to the body of the sweater, I decided to morph it into this Cloche. (see my post at http://tantalizingstitches.com/blog/digging-through-the-stash/ for more information.) Crocheted into my original design, this cloche is made of 100% Folkland sheep wool and my grandmother's pink ribbon yarn. This wool comes from the Falkland Islands, a United Kingdom Overseas Territory. It adds the perfect fluffiness and texture to compliment the sheen and rigidity of the ribbon yarn. The crocheted flower is a pin and therefore removable.
All my items are prewashed by hand before shipment.
***********HELP THE PUPPIES: Proud member of Etsy for Animals Street Team (EFA). 15% of your purchase will be donated to two puppies that I have rescued from the streets of Saipan for the veterinarian bills. Any excess funds will be donated to PAWS, the animal welfare organization on Saipan. See their website at paws-saipan.org. (I saved and placed the two puppies that are pictured on the front page of their website.) Before I can place these two puppies in loving homes, they will have to be treated for mange and worms. With your help, we can get these puppies back to health and with a caring family.
The life of a stray puppy in Saipan is bleak. With no animal cruelty laws and no homeless shelter, they are left to their own demise, unless they are fortunate enough to be found by a caring human. Your help is appreciated.
Thank you for looking. If you have any questions or comments, please convo me!
