I do the sewing up and stuffing. I’ve packed them up for the postman today, so they’ll be off to work very soon.

They are lovely. Very clever to make these adorable cuddlies.

Fabulous! What a kind thing to do.

What’s KfN, please?

What’s KfN, please?

Knit for Nowt, a charity that provides therapy items such as ‘worry-eaters’ and hand puppets, to children’s therapists all over the U.K. There is no charge to therapists except for the cost of post and packing. There is always a waiting list.

You can find the website via google. If you click on ‘more’ on the home page you can see ‘galleries’ of all the many different items volunteer knitters/crocheters/sewers make for the charity.

You must tell your neighbour'Well done' from us, they are brilliant.

Yes definitely well done to your neighbour. And well done to you too for the sewing and stuffing!

I'm full of admiration for your neighbour and also for you stuffing sewing and sending them .
I'm sending a worry bunny to someone -I suddenly thought of it at the craft fair .

That’s wonderful, Witzend. What a brilliant cause. Will certainly take a look, thank you.
