For Knitters

Knitting

We are very fortunate to receive regular, extremely generous donations of beautifully hand-crafted items. Knitting, crocheting, quilting and numerous other handicrafts. Crafty folks – we are in awe of your skills!

We currently have high volume of most items and we need to work through these before we can take further donations. With the exception of the items listed below, please do not send goods without checking with us first as we are extremely tight on storage space.

If you would like to knit any of the below items, please check out our knitting guidelines before doing so.

Worry Monsters

Our worry monsters offer great support to children who are facing medical issues or bereavement. They can be a great tool to help children express themselves. A child will write down their worries, then they feed them into the deep mouth of the monster and their worries are then all eaten up. The best thing about Worry Monsters is that they can come in many different shapes and sizes, just like us!

If you would like the worry monster pattern, please get in touch with us at hello@archie.org

Toys for newborns

Baby toys are hugely appreciated by the families and staff at the maternity hospitals we support. We always welcome knitted toys that may be dolls, elephants, bears, frogs – you name it, we will find it a loving home.

 

Thank you so much for caring.
