Come and see a knitted lamp, a knitted basket, even a knitted dustbin!



This delightful display contains a selection of items made by 40 women from a project with Equal Arts in Gateshead.



The exhibition celebrates the skills and creativity of older women, who explore everyday objects in a new way through knitting, providing a snapshot of their lives both past and present.



On display in the World Art Case in the Art Gallery and on Museum Street



Only a selection of the full exhibition is on display at Sunderland Museum & Winter Gardens.
