There are recycling 'bins' in places, but they want clothing which can be reused - and I don't think mine would be considered suitable.

I was just looking as some pieces of fabric suitable for kilts - I have a nice tartan which I hope to get sewn before my holiday - though I really need some new black clothes for when I am drumming for the morris dancers. I suspect that if I get the black things done then that is all I will get done and so I will be wearing the black all the time.

I had made a black crochet hat - but the silly thing has not felted, unlike the 'Flip side' one which seems just about perfect. I will just have to have another go and use a smaller hook and fewer stitches.

I have just over a week before the folk festival - I hope the weather cools down or there will be heat stroked people collapsing all over town.
