This month's free knitting patterns are for a strawberry tea cosy and knitted strawberries. These patterns were available from Simply Knitting and on Breast Cancer Care's website last year, and people all over the world are still using them to knit for charity, and emailing me their stories. I love hearing about every single one, so keep them coming, and keep knitting!
Florence
A cheerful strawberry look-alike tea cosy. Designed for Breast Cancer Care to help them in their fund raising efforts, the pattern for this cosy is available for free download, but if you haven't got the time or inclination to knit it, here it is, ready made. To fit a medium sized tea pot (4 - 6 cup), approx. 56cm diameter. £

Sophie Dress
This gorgeous tunic dress is versatile and easy to wear. In 100% pima cotton - the best quality cotton in the world, and really washes incredibly well. My daughters are still wearing theirs from last year and they look as new. Available in four sizes. Its a very generous fit, so the biggest size will maybe fit up to age 11. My 8 year old is still wearing her 6 -7, it is just a bit shorter now so she wears it with jeans for more of the tunic rather than the dress look. Looks equally good with nothing underneath, or with long sleeved t-shirt, so also brilliant for all seasons. £
