Last week I met up with Roxie from Rochford Arts Team to scope out the trees at Hockley Woods. We've decided that this is the tree. It's pretty big but I reckon we can dress a fair bit of it. There is also a nice little bench which would nice to dress up. This clearing is the first thing you see when you come into the festival so it'll make a big impact, everyone will realise how cool knitting is and join in, and we have a whole new generation of knitters in Essex - Job done!
As I mentioned the tree is rather large, about 200cm diameter. We tried it out with one bit of our stash of knitting and as you can see we need a lot more before the event on June 2nd- TWO WEEKS AWAY!!!
So if you're a knitter, and you'd like to show Essex that knitting isn't boring then visit the Knit something for the project page and join in!
