We knitted and crocheted The Longest Day in time for the 80th Anniversary, June 6th 2024, 80 meters in 3D representing 80 years and the 80 day Battle of Normandy before they got to liberate Paris... this then toured the U.K. to include Ireland, we attracted 250,000 visitors! This work is now in USA for a year ... in the meantime we have undertaken a second one! This one is called Britain at War, presently being rolled out gradually with the full 80 meters along with our Army of Duty Calls figures was unveiled 3rd September 2025 at Southwell Minster Nottinghamshire.https://www.thelongestyarn.com/
