My story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving fundraising page!

Knit now magazine is running a rather special campaign to raise money for a very special charity. We've challenged some of our best designers to come up with patterns for mitts, mittens and gloves and we're making those patterns available to you in exchange for a small donation. The suggested donation is £2.50 per pattern, but please give whatever you can - it all goes directly to the charity. Everyone who makes a donation will be sent a link to download the pattern of their chosing.

After you've got the pattern, you can use it to knit mitts for yourself and your friends and family. Our designers have also generously licensed the pattern for charity use, so you can use it to sell at craft fairs and suchlike - and then come back here to send in the money you raise.

Available now: Treacle Toffee mittens, Flapjack mitts, After Eight mitts, Alderman mitts

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - we raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
