The stork’s delivered a new blanket (and baby soon)

Charlotte, one of our lovely Volunteer Co-ordinators, recently went on maternity leave and we are so excited about having the youngest member of Team Stork join the crew soon. So much so that one of the first cuddles waiting for baby will be being wrapped in this gorgeous, first of its kind, Stripey Stork knitted blanket. Designed and created by Margarida, one of our multi-talented Trustees, who wanted to give Charlotte’s baby the Team Stork welcome he/she deserves.

We know we have some keen knitters who support our cause, or maybe (like Margarida) this is a hobby taken up over lockdown, so we wanted to share the pattern here. Because every baby deserves one of these!

Let us know how you get on, as we’d love to see more of these. And if you did want to Knit4Stripey, then these would make adorable additions to our new baby packs (please remember to include the wool type used in case of allergies).

Keep calm and carry on knitting!
