FAO knitters.

Angel bears is a charity which provides knitted bears to children in hospitals, homes and through front line services (police, paramedics, coastguards etc). They have patterns on their website for anyone who wishes to donate.

Until Christmas, magazine Take a Break is offering a freepost address to send bears to.

I mention this just in case anyone is interested.

Oh, and if, like me, you always miss the Innocent Smoothies hat drive, it's time. http://www.innocentdrinks.co.uk/bigknit/

Sadly, Coca Cola have reduced the amount of money per hat that Age Concern get *again*. They cut it from 50p per hat to 30p, and now it's only 25p per hat. I think I still will make a few, but it's very annoying nevertheless.

You could always knit hats for your own personal bottles and then send a larger cheque to Age Concern.

They all have orange juice in. (Except the green one which I don't see many places.) Do you drink them? I could send you hats?

your own personal bottles of a completely different brand of drink containing no orange juice? Your own hat-shaped egg cosies? We don't buy drinks in little boxes except for packed lunches.

or for that matter, little bottles.
