Every year, an army of woolly warriors take up their knitting needles and crochet hooks as part of the innocent Big Knit in partnership with ߣÍÃÊÓƵ. 

The Big Knit is our partnership with innocent drinks. We've been working together since 2003, asking the country's crafters to knit little hats for the tops of innocent smoothie bottles. Every hat knitted raises 25p to help ߣÍÃÊÓƵ provide much-needed services and support to older people.

Patterns for inspiration

Just to say how much I’ve enjoyed knitting simple little hats from small balls of wool!  It has kept me busy through some lonely evenings, and I’ve enjoyed helping those less fortunate than myself.
