🧶 The Longest Yarn 2 – Britain at War 🧵

Arriving next week, The Longest Yarn 2 is a knitted and crocheted study of Britain during the period of war declared on 3 September 1939 to VE Day on 8 May 1945.

Covering all aspects of life during the war including rationing, evacuees, the Blitz and the headlines of Britain's darkest hour, this remarkable display ends with the euphoria of peace.

Following the huge success of the original 80-metre work commemorating D Day, this new installation shares stories and memories through powerful textile art created by volunteers from around the world.

📅 On display from 29 April to 10 May.
🎟️ Included with Cathedral admission and valid for free return visits for 12 months.
