More Great Information on Brand Yarn:
Case Study: Icebreaker Merino - Reinventing Wool as a Performance Fiber, by Rob Achten (Core77)
_Launched in 1994, Icebreaker was the first company in the world to develop a
merino wool layering system for the outdoors. It was also the first outdoor
apparel company in the world to source merino directly from growers, a system
it began in 1997. Icebreaker merino clothing for the outdoors, technical
sports and lifestyle includes underwear, mid layer garments, outerwear, socks
and accessories for men, women and children. Icebreaker is based in
Wellington, New Zealand, and is sold in more than 3000 stores in 43
countries._
You have to be tough to survive in New Zealand's Southern Alps. With scorching
summers and freezing winters, the glacier-carved mountain range is a harsh,
inaccessible environment--and possibly the last place you'd expect to find a
sheep.
But the sheep that survive on the Southern Alps aren't run-of-the mill lowland
sheep. They're merino sheep: hardy alpine animals with a coat that insulated
in summer, breathes in summer, and is exceptionally soft and lightweight.
In 1994, Icebreaker's founder, Jeremy Moon was given a prototype t-shirt made
from merino wool. It was soft, sensual and lustrous--nothing like the itchy,
scratchy wool he'd grown up with. It was also machine washable, easy care and
naturally ...
What stores will donate?
I am making hats and scarves for the homeless and I need about 70 rolls of Lion Brand Yarn. What stores do you know of will most likely donate? Also can someone post a letter template for me to ask (over the phone). This is my first asking anybody. Also I am going to need 150 dollars for the food we are providing. That would also be helpful to add into the template. Thank you everyone!(: God Bless!
Stores will donate to churches and recognized charities with 501c3 status with IRS. They generally will not donate to an individual because they can't take that o their taxes so work with an organization in your community. If you don't know the store manager's or owner's name go to the library and ask the librarian to show you how to use a reference site called Reference USA. You can also call the store and just ask for the manager but you will get a lot further asking for them by name and calling them by name wen you talk to them. Say something like.
"Hello Mr ___, this is Sarah with (organization name). We're doing a project to help homeless people and we need your help, please. I'm not asking or any money just or some yarn to make hats and scarves to help them keep warm. We need about 70 rolls of yarn, so we're asking every place that sells yarn to help. How many rolls can you help us with?
For food ask food stores to donate and be specific (we need x loaves of bread and x packages of lunch meat etc. )
There is a Yahoo group that can be a big help to you in this too. It i called Freecycle. Find the Freecycle group for your area and you can put a notice there free and ask people to donate yarn. You can put a different notice asking people top donate food. You can use any brand of yarn as long as it is the same Weight Yarn - the weight not the brand is what makes things come out the right size even though every brand that publishes directions of course says use their brand.
BTW Wall Mart will often give up to $200 in merchandise, Ingles will usually give $200 in food one time in a year. You ask at the individual stores for that. Family Dollar will usually give $50 in merchandise, you apply for that at their web site. These donation are given to nonprofits and you will need to how proof of the organization's nonprofit status or of it being a church.
