Love the Yarn










This is the beginnings of a textile sculpture entitled 'Love the Yarn'. I happened upon it last week when I visited the Festival Hall on the Southbank in London.
Once I read this sign that was it, I was hooked.

I love knitting and couldn't resist picking up a pair of needles and some wool and adding my own contribution to the sculpture.











It was a very social event chatting whilst we knitted. I was only sorry that I had missed the other two workshops as I enjoyed it so much.











My work of art swimming through the yarn!

    Oh that is fun, I would have liked to share in the knitting too. In my heydays I have knitted so many jumpers.

    I'm surprised you knit, but I should not be. Your work does not dominate, but makes up as part.

    I would have joined in, too. What fun! Perhaps they will do it again and you'll be at all the events. :-)

    Wonderful idea. My Mum knits too. I'm always so impressed with people who can knit. It's a declining art form and looks very difficult to me!
