Well, I adore smoothies and must admit to drinking the Innocent smoothies nearly every day. At this point I should say it really is me and I’m not selling anything!
HOWEVER, I thought I might persuade some of you to knit a teeny weeny hat, just big enough to fit a smoothie bottle, with some of your left over yarn ... these hats are then sent to Innocent. I’ve pasted just below what they say (they are a bit of a mad bunch) but you will see they raise masses of money for Help the Aged.
Either you can link into their site or I will email you a PDF file - just let me know whether you want beginner, intermediate or advanced. However ... you can invent your own and they post pictures of their favourites! What do you say we send them some of LetsKnit’s finest creations
The Big Knit is back. We’ve been doing it for a few years now but if you don’t have a Danny la Rue what it is, it’s where we ask good folk around the country (like you) to help us knit a whole load of little woolly hats to pop on our smoothie bottles. Contrary to popular belief, we’re not running an egg cosy blackmarket on the side. Instead, for every behatted bottle sold, 50p goes to Age Concern to help keep older people warm this winter. Last year we raised over £200,000 and this year, with your help, we’d love to raise even more money. To get you started knitting, we’ve put together some handy knitting packs with patterns, wool and your very own hat-o-meter. If you fancy one, just click here and your crocheted creation might end up as Hat of the Week.
