Sterne arctique

 Bird Yarns brings knitters from Mull and across the UK and beyond together with textile artist Deirdre Nelson in response to the changing migration patterns of seabirds across Scotland’s islands. Working with local wool from Ardalanish, Mull, and recycled materials, the knitters created a flock of ‘lost’ arctic terns on Tobermory Pier and provided them with a Mull welcome of local food, music and poetry. Knitting kits have been developed in partnership with local producers to highlight the plight of migratory birds and celebrate local resources and resourcefulness.
