Strensall and Huntington WI rise to the challenge of providing Yarn bombing for the Women’s World Cup Rugby

Strensall and Huntington WI rose to the challenge of providing Yarn bombing for the Women’s World Cup Rugby, we already had the bunting which we originally created for the Coronation and have used every  year since  for Strensall Carnival, so our WI ladies quickly knitted red roses and green leaves, every thing was sewn together and rethreaded without using the blue triangles. Recycle and renew . It can all be seen at York City Council West St offices, we then treated our selves to refreshments at The Grand Hotel next door .

Fun and games with the members of the Canadian and Spanish Women’s Rugby World Cup teams

Following our Bunting being displayed by York City council to commemorate the Women’s Rugby World Cup matches being held in York , members of Strensall and Huntington WI were invited to a fun and games session with members of the Canadian and Spanish teams . What a great experience and opportunity. We all had such fun , they were very competitive but we all had a great laugh . You never know what you are going to get involved in next with the WI.
