Do you enjoy crochet or knitting?

Would you like to support a local charity and meet new friends?

If you answered yes to the above then please join us at one of our knitting events, The Big Knit. 

All items that are created will be sold at our shop “Handmade with Love” All monies raised fund our vital support services helping families that have been through baby loss. It’s a great event to meet new people, knit / crochet with a cuppa tea and cake.

Who’s welcome

Anyone with a passion or love for knitting or crochet is welcome to join us, including children.

Entry

Entry is FREE to both events, however we do ask you to make contact or fill in the form below to confirm your attendance.

On the day

On the day itself people are invited to bring with them wool and their needles (or hook) and either continue with some knitting they are already doing for Making Miracles or to knit a small pair of booties during that morning to donate at the end. You can find examples of the booties below for anyone who might like to follow a pattern or try out before the event itself. Then, as always, people may also knit the traditional squares 6 inches x 6 inches which will be sewn up into blankets.
