    The Longest Yarn are retelling Britain at war in knitted or crochet form. From the announcement of war through to the king and war is over.
    My group are depicting the above photograph and would love to do further research in order to pay homage to these brave men. At present we have only identified Mr Hall & Mr Grant.
    Could you tell us the names of any of the other gentlemen in the photo please.
