Milli Abrams, a UK knitter, became the only solo female British rower to finish the 3,000-mile Atlantic crossing in 2026, raising funds for charity and promoting environmental cleanup.

Milli Abrams, a Fife-based knitting business owner, completed a solo 3,000-mile row across the Atlantic Ocean from La Gomera to Antigua, finishing on January 17, 2026, as the only solo female UK participant in The World’s Toughest Row. She named her boat Knitannia in honor of her yarn business, Tribe Yarns, which she relocated to Scotland after recovering from long Covid. Abrams raised funds for The 2 Minute Foundation, promoting community litter cleanups, and Children’s Hospices Across Scotland, inspiring supporters to collect 3,564 pieces of litter—one for each mile rowed.
