ABOUT

The innocent Big Knit started 15 years ago with an idea. We asked people to knit little woolly hats and then we put those hats on our smoothies. To our surprise, people picked up their needles and the hats came rolling in. For each smoothie sold, 25p went straight to Age UK to help older people up and down the country.

We've raised nearly £2.5 million for Age UK over the years thanks to the Big Knit. If you’ve ever bought a smoothie or knitted a hat, hat’s off to you.
