(From the website). North Devon knitting supremo Alison Murray has garnered a worldwide following for her woolly creations.

Her current project, Above and Below the Waves, is a woolly underwater world which was made by some 2,000 knitters.

And now she has created a pattern for World Cup fans who are keen to knit their own 11” x 6” Cross of St George.

Alison said it took her an afternoon to knit the flag so you’ve still got plenty of time to create your very own woolly tribute the England team.

“It really doesn’t take long - I’ve tried to make the pattern as simple as possible,” she said.
