A GROUP of yarnbombers held a special knit/crocket event as a way to celebrate one of their member’s 95th birthday.

High Littleton and Hallatrow Yarnbombers held this event at the Scout Hall in High Littleton on Saturday, June 14, where people were asked to join in making squares to turn into blankets for Paulton Hospital.

One of the groups members Nel Mudford has been making these blankets for several years. The yarnbombers wanted to celebrate her 95th birthday by helping to make some squares to add to her collection.

Nel is the oldest member of the yarnbombers, but knits lots of items towards the yarnbombing trail, which is on display in High Littleton and Hallatrow every July and August.
