Functionsuite: A Knitting Bee

Jeanette's drawing of a tepee and interest in knitting sparked a chain reaction. The drawing led to the making of a blanket, the building of a knitted tepee, a series of photographs taken by artist, Anne Elliot, in the Scottish landscape, an exhibition in the Link gallery at Royal Edinburgh Hospital as well as a series of very sociable knitting bees, inviting fellow knitters from Glasgow as well as Edinburgh to take part.

"The work I do with patients has little effect on the institution as a whole, but it does have a great effect on the individuals involved."
[Anne Elliot, lead Functionsuite artist]
