Guerrilla knitting
Yesterday morning some of our members braved the cold to join a team of crafty people dressing Newcastle in knitting. This was in inconjunction with The Centre of Life as part of Sciencefest which starts this weekend . We turned up complete with a film crew to dress up some of the great statues in Newcastle city centre. As you can imagine we attracted a lot of attention , some of it unwanted. Where do the drunks come from on a Sunday morning!
Sadly as one would expect they didn’t last long as I understand some of the pieces were pinched not long after we dressed them . I hope they went to a good home!!Thanks to everyone who braved the cold to give the boys a make over and to those who spend their time knitting .
We will be at the Centre for Life on Saturday and Sunday taking part in the Maker Faire . Why not come down and get crafty with us.
