The web team have received the email below. If you have found the bag or the knitting, please contact the parish clerk on parishclerk@pitstone.co.uk and we’ll try to reunite it with its owner. Thank you.
Really random – but ever hopeful! We parked our car at the car park for Pitstone Windmill near Ivinghoe, and while we were away some darling smashed the window and took a home made red linen bag containing a half finished brightly colouredknitted blanket, a half finished knitted sock and a barely started scarf, plus all the knitting needles etc.
I am almost certain that the contents of the bag were not what they were after – unless it was a rabid National Trust member who loved knitting – so would think that the bag and contents would be thrown away somewhere nearby.
We had a look around but nothing found – if anyone local finds it – please let me know! We live in Kent so can’t keep looking ourselves.
