Hitchin Festival

©Woolly Chic

begins today - a month of art, music, theatre, and other fun events.

















Yesterday, I was part of the team from Hitchin Stitchin who  set up the art installation in St Mary's Churchyard.












Health and Safety at knitting was much in evidence













It attracted a lot of attention during the day. Hopefully,all the photos taken by people walking through the churchyard will hit social media and bring more people in to the Festival.
