Longton looks beautiful today!

Whilst shopping in longton this morning I noticed this lovely bit of knitting. I'm not sure how long its been there as its not a part of the town that I usually walk through. My little girl spotted it first. She was super-excited! I had to take photos with her standing by it. This kind of tube knitting has been done in many places. It's nice to see it in my local area though. It made me smile :o)

Ring 'o' roses

Brightening up some railings with some cheerful flowers. Quick and easy to make, even easier to tie on when no-ones watching. Look out for more of these..... 

The bench at the Victorian garden

Here we are attaching some lovely yarn to a dreary bench...

Our first outing at Burslem park....

Our first 'proper' outing was in April, 2011. A park warden knew what we were upto but the general public had no idea. A few of us sat at the entrance to the childrens playarea and began to knit, crochet and chat while the kids played out in the spring sunshine.
Off we wandered around the park looking for places that would be good to brighten up. The Victorian garfen has some dreary benches so we attached a granny square, a fish and some coloured yarn. As we left a couple of ladies sat at the bench. They smiled at the nice addition, having no idea it was us that had put them there.
Our only goal is to make people smile.....
