We love finger knitting! It’s fun and safe for everyone to try because no needles are needed. All you need is a ball of wool and some fingers to have a go!
You can share pictures of your woolly creations over on the Ribena Facebook page and if they’re purple knits then even better.
Right, let’s get started…
1. Hold the end of the wool between your thumb and forefinger
2. Weave the wool over your forefinger, behind your middle finger and over your ring finger.
3. Wind the wool anti-clockwise behind and around your three middle fingers.
4. Pull the lower loop on your ring finger over the upper piece of wool and away from you, over the top of your finger.
5. Move the wool held between your thumb and forefinger to between your forefinger and middle finger so that it goes over the wool in front of all three fingers.
6. Wind the long end of wool attached to the ball anti-clockwise, behind and then around your three middle fingers, and behind your little finger.
7. On your ring finger, pull the lower loop over the upper piece of wool and then over your finger again so it sits behind your finger. Repeat this on your middle and forefingers so you can see three loops left on your fingers.
8. Repeat the last two steps until you have knitted as much as you need. You can tighten the knitting by pulling the short piece of wool behind your fingers at any time.
9. Cast off (finish) by leaving about 15cm of wool free and then cutting with scissors. Thread this end through the three loops on your fingers then remove and pull tight.

If you loved the new Ribena summertime TV advert then we’ve got a real treat for you; a behind-the-scenes look at the making of the commercial!
From the berry characters’ miniature mushroom drums through to their realistic facial expressions, each stage of the new Ribena advert was storyboarded by our talented team of animators. The landscape for the advert was then created using a combination of mini handcrafted models, live vegetation and CGI technology and the Ribena berries were added into the live action shots ready to be brought to life on your TV screens!
Let us know what you think of the Ribena Summertime TV advert over on the Ribena Facebook page.

You already know that Ribena drinks taste yummy, but you might not know that they’re bursting with vitamin C as well.
Vitamin C not only helps the immune system, it’s important for the normal function of bones, cartilage, gums, skin, blood vessels and lots more. Each 250ml serving of Ribena squash or a 288ml Ribena carton contains your daily dose of vitamin C, and most of our other Ribena drinks are rich sources of vitamin C as well.
There are loads of delicious Ribena products packed with vitamin C for you to choose from, including scrumptious strawberry and traditional blackcurrant. For those who prefer low sugar drinks, we also offer a No Added Sugar option, which is available in a squash, single cartons and multipack cartons.
So, all you need to do is pick your favourite Ribena drink and… enjoy!
Ever wondered what happens once those tasty British blackcurrants make it into delicious Ribena drinks? Well, they’re packed into 100% recycled plastic bottles, so you can feel good that you’ve done a bit for the environment when you’re enjoying your favourite Ribena ready-to-drink flavours.
