Kate Just (centre) knitting with us at Leon, Spitalfields- thanks to Kate for letting us use her photo!
We were lucky enough to be joined by Kate Just, a lovely Australian visual artist at our latest Knit and Natter meeting at Leon in Spitalfields. Kate is currently in the UK working on the Knit HOPE project, in which she invites knitters, such as ourselves, to join her in knitting a large banner made from neon and reflective materials and later march with the banner. To find out more, you can like KNIT HOPE on Facebook or have a look on Kate’s website.
Kate talks to Tina about the project
If this sounds like something you’d like to take part in, Kate will be running events throughout the UK – again have a look on the KNIT HOPE Facebook page for a list of upcoming events, including a stint at I Knit London and an event in Colchester.
