A couple of weeks ago my mum put me onto this little project. Innocent smoothies are doing a special offer over Christmas where you buy a smoothie with a little winter hat on it and they make a donation to charities which help the elderly through winter. Of course they need people to knit the little hats to go on the smoothies.
I put these two together that weekend and learnt for the first time how to make a pompom! I was very pleased with myself. Unfortunately the first one I made was way too big for the little hats so it's just hanging around the flat until I find a use for it but I was pleased with these too.
Their website has a whole host of different designs, most of which were well out of my reach but I did these two in the beginners level 'doddle' pattern and had them done in no time as well.
It's a little late to send them in now as the deadline is 31st October, but I am sure they will repeat the project next year, plus I then discovered that they are running the same project here in Germany with a 1st December deadline! So I may even manage a couple more by then!
