This is a picture of 2 little girls at the Parnell Rose Festival late last year where Knitterati had a stall. They were very keen to have a flower each and I made them one and they helped choose and sew the button on. They were a bit apprehensive of the safety pin at the back but agreed to have them pinned to their sleeve instead of to the front of their clothing.
The beanies in the lower picture are on their way to newborn Ben Henry. Knitterati are participating in an art event as part of the Auckland Festival and I have been in training and practising the pattern. The event is called Knit Bright, at Art Station on 12 March, Saturday from 6pm-midnight. We will be creating beanies for newborns , for the project of the same name already in existence. People can come along and knit too with us, and there will be another artist , Niki Hastings-McFall doing her collective art installation at the same time.
