Knautical Knitting

Fraserburgh is a well know herring town. We need you to knit us a fish. We're going to fill our Net Drying Area and our Exhibition Room with knitted fish! We will have a fish auction in September.

Please knit us a fish and send it to the Museum.

What is this project about?

Knautical Knitting is part of the Fish Exchange, a series of projects by artist Deirdre Nelson. It follows Kinnaird Kaleidoscope Knitting which covered the Net Drying Area with knitted lighthouses.
