The Big Knit 2018 is coming.
For every behatted smoothie that gets sold, Age UK will receive 25p to help older people and reduce loneliness.
How you can get involved
Whether you’re new to casting on or already know your garter from your stocking stitch, it's easy to get started. You’ll also be part of the huge knitting team helping us to reach such a monumental target for a great cause.

A wide range of knitting patterns to suit all abilities and styles can be found here. Alternatively, you can come up with your own unique and wonderful creations.
