Little Town of Knitting

Model village of Wool

I was looking through Yarn Forwards site the other day, primarily to see whether there were any jobs being advertised - not that I can move jobs at the moment you understand - but just to satisfy my curiosity as to whether a job was even possible to pursue in one's hobby, when I saw this link to the Telegraphs website.

It turns out the ladies in Mersham near Ashford in Kent have been very busy with their knitting needles and managed to knit a whole town out of wool. It has taken 23 years for their 40 strong afernoon club to create this little town but now due to its large size they are selling it off.

What a tragedy, you'd think that a local museum would want to invest in this unusual take on their town. Still good luck to all the ladies there, hopefully it will raise a lot of money for their hall funds.
