Charity Knitting - This page aims to co-ordinate charity knitting projects.   If you fancy using up your stash for a worthy cause or just want something to do that will benefit others then please browse this page for ideas.

For each project there are full details of what's required, why it's required and what to do with your efforts once you have finished. If you have a charity project that you would like included here, please email the details to us and we will see if we can fit it in for you.  If it's on this page, then it's current:
