Regent Street in Douglas has been “yarn bombed”.
That’s the message from Douglas Development Partnership (DDP), which found colourful wool covering the trees and street furniture this morning.
The Manx Yarnies say the event – created with permission from the DDP - is a celebration of its 132-strong knitting and crochet group.
Organiser Lorna Trevethan tells us she hopes the “graffiti-meets-street-art installation” will brighten up the street and make people smile.
She explains where the idea came from:
2,542 calls to 999 last month
Community service for man who stole from brother
Council to spend £40k on prom lights
Mountain Road due to reopen tonight
MHKs to discuss Braddan Roundhouse
Government roadshow moves to Peel
Woman accused of money laundering
Purple Helmet visits Government House
