   Last week I visited a life size knitted garden at the artsdepot in Finchley, North London. Blooming Marvellous, as it's known, certainly lives up to its name. It’s brilliant, bright, quirky, extremely colourful, utterly delightful and great fun to visit. Hurry if you want to visit as it is only on display until Thursday 4^th September 2014.

   Here are my final set of photographs of the delightful knitted figures from Saltburn by the Sea.

   This time they are commemorating the 2012 Olympic & Paralympic games.

   The Queen Elizabeth II's Diamond Jubilee 2012 was celebrated in Saltburn by the Sea, North Yorkshire, by the arrival of some charming knitted characters.

   When I visited in September I was delighted to see the figures and have uploaded some photos.
