Knitted Lies

Emma W. and I went on a excursion to the land beyond the borderlands today. We visited Moonah Arts Centre (yes, Moonah has an arts centre) and saw a knitting exhibition (part of Ten Days on the Island). It was supposed to be an exhibition entirely knitted, but no, false advertising. There were non-knitted items like shirts (surely the easiest thing to knit). But the most misleading thing about the exhibition was that many of the objects such as the fountain, wheelbarrow, human figures, stove and telephone, weren't actually made entirely of knitting. Instead, they were objects covered in knitting. How easy is that? Surely it requires much more skill to create something entirely from knitted wool? Shame on those grandmas.
