Knitted Thing of the Day: Daphne O’Donoghue, Joy Pearson, Joyce McDonagh, Margaret Goldup (above) and several other members of the Mersham Afternoon Club in Mersham, Kent, have spent the last 23 years knitting a scale model of their entire village, complete with cricket pitch, cabbage patches, and teenagers slouching on their way to school.
“We read about another village that’d done it, and we thought we’d give it a whirl,” Ms. McDonagh told the Telegraph. “But we’d no idea what we’d bitten off, it just sort of grew and grew and grew.”
Plenty more photos of the massive installation can be found here.
