Knit it Blue

For World Parkinson’s Day 2025 we are asking knitters or crocheters to create a beautiful blue tulip. 

The tulip holds special significance for those in our community. We would love for creative crafters to show your support by knitting a blue tulip and sending your creations to us.

The tulips will form a spectacular garden display for World Parkinson’s Day. Afterwards, the knitted tulips will be sold at Walk For Parkinson’s events to help fund specialist care for people with Parkinson’s.

The pattern is available to download, or you are welcome to use your own pattern. The only requirement is that it’s a tulip, and it’s blue!

Once you have your creation, please send it to this address by 31 March 2025:
