Flower power knitted garden

Back in April I heard an intriguing story on the radio news about a grant that had been awarded to a community group to knit a garden. I then followed up on the story and introduced us all to the Griffith Natty Knitters.

We found out how they were in the process of knitting a garden, and the first stage of it was going to be on display at the Flower Power exhibition in Griffith this year in October.

Well, we’re now in October, and I have some details for you!

They meet weekly and have been busily working on this project for over 12 months.
