2026 Knitting Challenge




I’m fundraising for Sands


Sands ensure that everyone affected by the loss of a baby gets the support they need and deserve. They campaign for change, provide training for midwives and healthcare professionals, and support research. Anything you are able to donate means so much.


I'm taking on the 2026 Knitting Challenge in memory of my Nanny - who knitted so many things.

Even tinier hats!

Wednesday 14th Oct
These tiny hats will be donated to The Big Knit campaign - they will end up on top of smoothie bottles!

First knit completed!

Wednesday 7th Oct
My first knit is an orange newborn baby hat. An orange hat helps healthcare professionals identify babies who are “hat risk” and who may need extra care or monitoring in hospital. I have enough yarn to make 3 more hats which I will then be donating to my local maternity unit.
