Visit your local yarn shop it will make their day.
Many have addresses of other shops nearby who are also participating. You'll be surprised how many yarn shops are on your high street. #supportlocalyarnshops #LYS – at Horwich, England

Whenever Eleanor Roosevelt was sitting, she was #knitting. On 9/30, 1941, at Waldorf Astoria Hotel in NYC, she told 2,000 women, “We cannot turn our backs on the needs of other people.” Then she began to knit. In my book, LADIES, FIRST: COMMON THREADS.

Two years ago I was in Paris making a programme about Marie Antoinette. These items, which didn't make the final cut but which tickled my fancy greatly, were on display at the Conciergerie prison at the time.
They're supposedly MARIE ANTOINETTE'S KNITTING NEEDLES.
