I have been in contact with MK Friends you can find out who they are here: MK FRIENDS
I asked what they needed and found they wanted toys or blankets to sell in their shop in the Milton Keynes Hospital.
As I have been making blankets galore I decided to make toys for a change.
In order for the toys to be safe I needed this
Safety eyes are either sewn in or safety eyes for toys that have a lock on the back so they can't be pulled out.
Yarn is acrylic as it can be washed and some people can have allergies to wool based yarn.
I have various books with patterns in them to use.
Amigurumi is a lovely way to make small toys and the book I have is the knitted version of this craft.
The Rainbow Babies are a fun project and you can make a wide variety of colours.
I will also use some patterns that I have used in the past.
This is simple to make
This Little Teddy makes a lovely first teddy or maybe one that can be tucked into a bag as a mascot.
All of these will give me a range of projects to use and will provide something for MK Friends to sell and help those who need it.
