DOUBLE KNIT from the Stone Ages?????

I asked this some time back----
Are there any organizations that use double knit fabric from 90000 years ago to make items for the needy???
I have been ORDERED by someone (his name or position I will not mention here!!!!) to find it a home or it goes to the dump////////// I hate to throw it out---but I also do NOT want to or have the time to mess with it or sew it up or make anything with it.
Any and all ideas and solutions and COMMENTS will be appreciated and I will continue to research uses and solutions.
Thanks Cuties and God Bless Y'all!!

Take it to a Goodwill shop or something similar. OR call around to churches. They may be willing to stitch up jackets or blankets for the homeless.

What about an animal refuge. The one near me uses this type of thing for bedding in the kennels.

I know Old Age Homes also need wool to keep the elderly occupied. Also great for therapy for them. Check them out near you. I am sure they will accept.
