About

Wednesday 14th August – Tuesday 24th September | 2024
Mansfield Central Library
FREE

Celebrate knitting, crochet and the amazing generosity of crafters across the county!

See a wall of colourful blankets and all the beautifully knitted and crocheted squares that have been created; displayed together they create an enormous 'woolly hug' in Mansfield Central Library gallery!

Inspire: Culture, Learning and Libraries, Your Health Notts, Newark and Sherwood District Council, Dementia Action Nottingham and Nottinghamshire and Creative Lives are supporting crafters to make knitted and crocheted squares into homely warm blankets for people to cherish.

Nottinghamshire knitwear designer Jane Withers has created a striking blanket design to inspire everyone to get creative with wool for a good cause.

At the end of the exhibition all the blankets will be donated to charities supporting people in care and hospital settings.
