Yarn needed

Hi everyone, we are in need of some specific yarn donations for our mission team to take with them to Kenya. One of the ladies on the team is teaching the women there to make a specific item with knitting looms, that will be made as souvenirs for the Mission gift shop.We need the yarn by 15 June so the team can pack. The list is short but as much yarn as possible would be great.
