Christmas Jumper Blog

Save the Children is having another Christmas Jumper Day and this year it's set for Friday 15th December.

There are many ways to get involved, but perhaps the simplest is for you (or your dog) to wear a Christmas jumper for school or work and make a small donation to the campaign. They suggest £2 each. See their site for ways to sign up.

We've been supporting Save the Children with their campaign since it started, which has involved making jumpers for giant dogs and even a flock of sheep!

We'll be wearing our jumpers next Friday with pride. The squeakers and bells are even more fun when you know your donation is helping the charity help children around the world. Its projects cover education and even keeping children warm with hats and blankets.

Coronation Street + our Christmas jumpers = Babs' dreams come true

Ken Barlow has already been spotted in trailers for an episode of Coronation Street where he'll be wearing a Woolly Babs Christmas Jumper. Specifically, Rudolph with the squeaky nose. 

He was even on Tuesday's This Morning looking awesome in our handmade Christmas jumper.

SPOILER ALERT: he may also be seen with a little friend in a matching jumper. What a beautifully tailored duo.

We think Ken Barlow (played by William Roache) is looking pretty fine in his Christmas jumper, styling it up with a scarf. Even with gloves on, he's managing a thorough squeaking of Rudolph's nose.

We've long been fans of Coronation Street and Babs herself is from Lancashire so keeps tabs on life over there from this, the bright side of the Pennines.

Therefore we count ourselves as locals and are proud to have our products chosen to be on one of our favourite and local shows!

To get the Ken Barlow look for yourself or someone special, this is the Christmas Jumper he's sporting.

Also available for ladies (Kennettes?) and... just saying... dogs! From Chihuahua to Rottweiler.
