Grandmas knit tiny a tiny version of their town

A group of knitting-mad ladies have created a mini woollen version of their home town - including the the local pub and church.

The seven-strong team have spent the last two years furiously threading the quiet high street on Thrapston, Northants,, complete with hanging baskets and pedestrians.

The group, whose oldest member is 93-years-old, made more than 15 of Thrapston's most prominent buildings including the old town cinema and local post office.

Leader of the group, Sue Couves, 63, said: "I really love doing this, we just sit around knitting until someone has a good idea."
