The Knitting Room
Strathaven folk knit themselves a room
“Life in an old people’s home sometimes needs a focus. Residents feel they’ve outgrown their usefulness, but don’t want to just sit around passively. Imagine then if you could recreate the past, taking yourself back to a gentler time when life was simple, people were decent and fair. Now imagine if you could do it with just a few balls of wool…”
