The Big Knit is back!

Great news! The Big Knit is back.....and the donation per hat has been increased from 25p to 30p!

The Big Knit is our partnership with innocent drinks.  We've been working together for a number of years, asking local crafters to knit or crochet little hats for the tops of innocent smoothie bottles.  Our target this year is 7,000 and every hat knitted raises 30p to help Age UK Barnet provide much needed services and support to older people.  So, if you have a passion for knitting, or want to start stitching, we could use your help and you could help raise money for Age UK Barnet

Get Involved!

The deadline for us to receive all your little knitted hats is 31st May 2025. You can send your hats to our office:

Age UK Barnet, Ann Owens Centre, Oak Lane N2 8LT. 

You can also drop them in yourself and say hi! 

If you need some inspiration, check out some of the knitting patterns below.  There is a range of patterns for beginners and for more experienced knitters.

Send us your photos!

To encourage other knitters to get their needles out, we will be posting photos on social media and in our newsletter.  Please email photos to jenny.coomey@ageukbarnet.org.uk
