Knitting pretty

Knitting

I just saw an article on the BBC website about a town in Kent where the Afternoon Club knitted a model of their town. The group has around 40 members and it took them 23 years to finish the project!

Then I remembered a little exhibition we saw at Alnwick Castle which was full of everyday, knitted things. At first we thought it was some sort of modern art exhibition where the artist had put up a bunch of ordinary objects but then we got closer and realized they were all knitted! (I don’t even have the patience to knit a scarf so I am in complete awe of these women…)
