The climax of our 6-week Community Knit-In, follow the trail of the Totterdown yarn-bombers, as they work their way through the cemetery, turning the trees into a woolly wildlife wonderland!  Let the yarn lead you from the Top Gate in Totterdown to the Spielman Centre, where the centre of the Trail action in Arnos Vale takes place
