    Hall for Cornwall is pleased to report that the attempt to bring the record for the World's Longest Scarf to Cornwall is well underway. Tied to this year's panto, Sleeping Beauty, HfC is coordinating an army of knitters from around the county and well beyond (including Canada!) to challenge the record currently held by Wales.

    We've a very long way to go, but have had several scarf sections donated so far and we know of contributors working away throughout Cornwall. Staff at HfC have been learning too, with Knitting Masterclasses and socials arranged on a monthly basis (all welcome, novices and experts!).

    The first of many ambitious milestones will be "A Mile by May" which we hope will see the first mile of scarf assembled in time for the Fal River Festival. Anyone interested in getting involved with the attempt can email info@reallylongscarf.org.uk for a knitting pack or call into Box Office to pick one up.

    The next Knitting social and Masterclass is to be held at the Hall from 10am - 12pm on April 29th.

    Why not pop by for a chat and to knit a few rows?
