Hi everyone, we wanted to share with our local customers that there is a fabulous exhibition on at The Discovery Centre called Blooming Marvellous, and their project is a knitted garden. We visited them at the weekend and took pictures of the fantastic work. This is from the Gosport Council website... and you add knit and add to the exhibition, Diva Crafts have donated a knitted poppy!
