General Discussions ( Anything Goes )
(This article was taken from BBC Radio Wales website)
(Louise Elliott - BBC Radio Wales radio presenter)
Louise wants to knit the longest red scarf in Wales to celebrate the Six Nations and support Warren Gatland and our boys - but she needs your help!
You can knit on any size needles, with any wool, but it must be red and it must be 7" wide. How much you knit is up to you, the longer the better!
Louise and the team will then try their best to get the scarf on as many TV shows as they can - it'll be your job to spot them on air!
Once you've completed your section, post it to Louise at BBC Radio Wales, Cardiff CF5 2YQ, and she'll stitch them all together. Please get your knitted sections to us by the end of January and leave the rest to us!
It'd be great if you could send us a photo of you with your knitting too, so we can create a gallery to thank everyone who's supported the challenge. Email your picture to jamieandlouise@bbc.co.uk or text it to 81012 (your usual network multimedia message rate applies).
Progress update 21 January 2010
We're making good progress so far after just a few days - here's a grab from our webcam on Thursday where you can see it draped across the studio!
