THE Dingwall yarn-bombers have struck again, with a festive theme perfect for spooky season.

Dingwall’s yarn-bombing group was founded by local artist and University of the Highlands and Islands (UHI) art graduate, Sharon Marshall. The group have been bringing cheer to the Ross-shire county town throughout the year, with seasonal knits for every holiday, such as Christmas and Valentine’s Day.

As well as sharing their knitted creations to brighten the community, the group have also taken it upon themselves to raise cash for a worthy-cause in the town. The knitters are raising money for St Clements School, with collection tins located at The Veg Shop, The Spar Shop and West End Filling Station.

The Dingwall Yarn-Bombers meet up every Tuesday at the Dingwall Community Centre, to work on ongoing projects for yarn-bombing the town centre, with anyone welcome to attend and refreshments included.
