Your group may decide they'd like to fundraise to buy new yarn or perhaps to make a donation towards a charitable cause.

In our experience, patterns that do best to raise funds are for smaller items. You can knit
a lot of them and they can be sold reasonalby cheaply, unless you're planning a stall at a craft fair where items can be sold for more. Otherwise, if you have larger, more expensive items, it might be better to consider raffling them.

Why not knit some bunting for your stand - you could make this a group knitalong?

Ideas for fundraising
- Teacosies -they go down well and there are lots of great patterns around
- Scarves
- Beanies
- Hats and scarves in football team colours
- Soft toys - make these small as you'll never get your 'money back' on bigger ones
- Finger puppets
- Handbags
- Phone and iPod cosies
- Christmas tree decorations - these always go down well at Christmas fetes especially if
you pop a mini chocolate bar into each one!
