Revisiting The Love Darg 2018
“The People’s Friend” Love Darg is back!
Once again, we’re inviting keen knitters and crocheters to spend a little time creating something special in support of Cats Protection.
The UK’s leading cat welfare charity helps around 200,000 cats and kittens each year.
In 2018, it found new homes for 41,000 cats, reunited 3,000 lost cats with their owners. It even found homes in places like farms and garden centres for 19,000 feral cats, too!
Our patterns
You can choose from:
- This cat toy knitting pattern
- This cat toy crochet pattern
- This pattern for cute little cat comforters
If you’re looking for some inspiration, take a look at this video of the team (and friends) getting some training in for our 2018 campaign:
Quite a few people learned a new skill that day!
Plus the team raised money Cats Protection, and, of course, enjoyed some delicious cake!
