Granny McFlitter: A Country Yarn

Granny McFlitter, the champion . . . bull fighter?

Granny McFlitter, our favourite champion knitter, is back! And this time, it’s to save the A&P Show. Can Granny outwit – or should we say outknit – a rampaging bull?


\”Ole!\” Granny cried, as the cape flapped around.
The bull steamed and snorted and pawed at the ground.

Granny McFlitter’s knitting needles have been in a blur, whipping up an entry for the local A&P Show’s ‘Best Vegetable Knitter’ competition.

But all of a sudden, the A&P Show turns to chaos when a bull breaks out of his pen. Before you could say \”Mighty mad macho moo\”, he’s trampling pavlovas and sponge cakes.

Everyone dives for cover – but not Granny McFlitter. She has a plan to capture the bull with – you guessed it – her knitting needles!
