Knutty Knitters knit a 'Knitivity'

A group of knitters who made a life-sized knitted version of the Nativity for charity last month have raised seven thousand pounds. The Knutty Knitters will present a cheque to St Peter's Hospice today after taking their knitivity on tour around Bristol.

A group of friends have knitted a life size nativity scene. It's taken them almost a year, but there's a special story behind this labour of love as Eli-Louise Wringe reports:

The friends are raising money for St Peter's Hospice. You can see the Knitivity at the following locations in Bristol, South Gloucestershire and North Somerset before Christmas:

14th December: Holy Family Catholic Primary School

15 - 16 December: St Peter's Hospice

17 - 18 December: St Bernadette's Secondary School

19 - 21 December: St Francis Primary School, Nailsea

21 - 24 December: ASDA Patchway
