The Giant Union Flag!

Just a little taster of just how HUGE the flag is for Stony Stratfords Diamond Jubilee Celebrations!
6,156 Knitting tensions squares sewn into blankets, to be sold after exhibiting to raise money for Willen Hospice, Milton Keynes based charity.
We're waiting to hear back from The Guinness World Records, I think we're in for a good chance - What do you think?

We'd like to thank all the knitters for donating their time for a worth while cause.

Stony's Jubilee Flag


We need you help!

We've been asked to create a Union Flag to hang in Stony Stratford for Jubilie Week.

It's going to be about 8m x 4m, made up of 10,000 tension squares (22 stitches x 28 Rows in Garter Stitch - it will come out as a rectangle) in Pricewize Red, White, and Blue.

But we can't do it all ourselves!

We've already got some of our customers knitting but the more hands the better!

... Follow the link to the Pricewize page on our website to get involved - don't forget to pop your name in with the squares so we know who to credit at the end.


AND AFTERWARDS....

We'll turn the flag into lap blankets that'll be auctioned off for Willen Hospice!


Feel free to ring us at the shop on 01908 565122

We're in the Papers!!

Fancy helping us, and do your bit for Stony Stratfords Jubilee celebrations?
