I was kidnapped by my fellow yarnstormers and made to knit like a complete loony in order to create this masterpiece:

Actually, I did the kidnapping! I became rather dictatorial and made Deadly Knitshade, Blue Stocking Stitcher, Lady Loop, Knitting Ninja and Shorn-a the Dead WORK! I had an RSI. We all had headaches! I lived, breathed and ate brightly-coloured acrylic. I cracked the whip and was very bossy…but it was worth it, right?

Just some of the sewing...
Tourists flocked to take a picture. Old men in suits took pictures on their phones. Even the Rozzers took a sneaky pic whilst giving Lady Loop a “5090”. We were praised! We were thanked! And it made the sleepless nights and the aches and pains all worthwhile. I didn’t even need my usual dose of Rescue Remedy – the sleep deprivation caused a delirium that no drug could possibly induce!
