Knitted Nativity
Passers-by in Green Street, Sandbach, may notice an unusual Nativity scene in the window of Sandbach Baptist Church's Oasis Community Centre. All of the characters in the colourful display, which is at child height, are knitted! They are the work of church member Val Hardman. Judith McKenna led the design of the scene. The knitted characters attending the birth of the (knitted) Baby Jesus include Mary and Joseph, an angel, shepherds, wise men and even a knitted manger and cheerful donkey! Have a happy and meaningful Christmas, everyone!
