This intrepid group of knitters (about 100 at the last count) bomb Thirsk Market Place every so often with the most fantastic displays. Whether it be a Jubilee, the sombre time of  Remembrance, Ukraine, the celebration of Christmas, you name it, they do it.

Or hey –  how about spring/Easter?

The people of Thirsk, a small Market Town with a big heart, never know when it will happen… But sure enough, a few days ago Margaret’s bus drew into the bus stop to the left of the Market Place, off we all trooped, ‘Thank you,’ to the driver. ‘Have a nice time,’ to everyone else, a few paces towards the crossing, and there they were. ‘We have been Yarnbombed,’ went up the cry. Glorious. Wonderful. Here are just a few:

Thank you to Thirsk Yarnbombers, who beaver away and delight us all, and I don’t just mean the locals, but those who divert from their route to see the display, as several have told Frost Magazine they do.

So, Thirsk Yarnbombers, your skill and kindness is heart warming, and so much appreciated, but… but…  we all wonder if, after Easter, and with the Coronation looming, we will be treated to another very special display. Oh please say yes.
