'Woollen Woods' project

The 'Knit and Natter' group that I now go along to get involved in all sorts of events. The latest is making woodland creatures for a festival at Kirklinton Hall near Carlisle. Over the past month or so our group has been making lots of creatures - below are the ones I have been busy making…..







Then early in May, a few of us from the knitting group, went to help set up our contribution along a woodland walk in the grounds of Kirklinton Hall. It was just amazing to see how they all looked in the woodland setting, and below are just a few photos


We even had a few of our creatures in the local paper!
 It was fun making the knitted creatures, something I would never have thought of making before. The patterns I used are here for the hedgehog and here for the owl, and the caterpillar was passed on by the K&N group.
The creatures will be in the woods until the end of June, so if you are in the area and fancy a more unusual walk in the woods now is the time to visit!
