( who's donating the 'poodle' Wink )

I had a lovely time last time round and won some more of Debs lovely stash Very Happy Would be more than happy to donate something and even happier to bid on lots Wink It was a lovely way to raise funds for a really worthwhile cause and have knittery fun at the same time.

Ali, what a great idea. I won some beautiful stitchmarkers last time, I was away at Colinette when the auction took place so missed the bidding war Wink but had put a reserve on Knitangel's beautiful stitchmarkers. I'm definitely in for this. I THINK I'm right in saying all the money last time went to Action Aid but what a great way to support Race for Life or whoever we support.

Can you bid but not donate?

I have been racking my brains for the last day trying to think what I could donate, but I haven't got anything that anyone would want to buy, apart from a ball of sock wool and some ancient knitting books.

I haven't got a stash at the moment, just the stuff I am working on Very Happy

I could buy something to donate though. Or just bid??

It wasn't my idea so may be speaking out of turn, but I reckon it'd be fine to just bid - it's just a way of re-distributing stash with a bit of extra fun and a good cause added! If you have no stash to re-distribute then it's just fine that you take some away from us!!!!!

Last time I didn't donate - I joined the forum in time to bid but was too late to donate. The way I see it is that both are equally important, no good having donations without bidders and vice versa! It's all about raising money anyway.
