Fraserburgh's Lighthouse museum received a welcome delivery of knitted fish from Aberdeen Grammer School's craft club recently.

Students from Aberdeen Grammer School learnt to knit as part of a craft club and decided to use their new found talents to knit fish for the museum's 'Knautical Knitting' project.

The craft club visited the Museum of Scottish Lighthouses on Friday, May 27 to deliver a school of knitted fish.

Virginia Mayes-Wright, director of the museum, said: "I had no idea the kids had done so much in so little time. I was amazed."

The fish from Aberdeen Grammar School are now on display in the museum, along with over 150 others.

To get involved with the 'Knautical Knitting' project, contact the museum for a pattern, knit a fish, or even a whole shoal, and deliever them to the museum by the end of August.

The 'Knautical Knitting' project follows on from the success of Kinnaird Kaleidoscope Knitting, which covered Kinnaird Head’s net drying poles in knitted lighthouses.

Virginia Mayes-Wright said: "This project is just so much fun. We hope that the knitters enjoy it as much as we enjoy displaying the fish.”
