A Patch of Autumn in Dulwich Park
We were commissioned by Southwark Council to produce an event in Dulwich Park and the result was 'A Patch of Autumn'. We spent three glorious days in the park, making knitted and crochet pumpkins and pom pom bats and spiders, whilst being sung to and joining in with the lovely Aimee Leonard - a series of knitting songs which led the way for a trail through the park at dusk to see all the creations installed...

Wool Week Window in John Lewis
We were lucky enough to have our knitting as part of the window display in John Lewis, Oxford Street, for Wool Week and Daisy Lowe was presented with a bouquet of daisies crocheted by our fair hands

GEEK
Commissioned by GEEK (Gaming Expo East Kent) to create a fun making workshop for during the show, we came up with this pattern for a PacMan Ghost and positioned them around the town on a very wintry evening, within a couple of hours they had all be re-housed!
The workshop at GEEK was to make mini PacMan and Ghosties for finger puppets and drew a lot people who were very happy to sit and make in between gaming.
