Description:
A community group has knitted a life-sized tank to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the D-Day landings.<br/><br/>Around 30 volunteers spent eight hours a day for nine months knitting eight-inch squares for the artwork, which was modelled on a Churchill AVRE tank. The stunning creation is now a whopping 24ft (7.3cm) wide and 7ft (2.1m) tall and is covered in the olive green squares that the volunteers knitted.
