As part of the centenary of the Poetry Society they are knitting a giant poem! They are currently looking for people to knit or crochet more blank squares!
They have a facebook group too!
This looks like a fun project that combines handicrafts with writing craft 
I wish I was a better knitter.
My mother likes earrings but does not have pierced ears so for mothers day I made her these star adn moon earrings. To do this I used:
*pink soft fimo
*white stone tectured fimo (ie it has flecks of grey and things in it)
*moon aspex cutter
*star aspex cutter
*UHU glue
*clip on earring backs
Fimo is a plastic clay that contains a solvent – this solvent can dissolve, certain plastics and ruins nail vanish if you are wearing it. For this reason I tend to use glass, wood and metal with it.
I rolled the limo out until it was about half a millimetre thick then I cut the shapes out using the spec cutters (little tiny cookie cutters), I did a large batch of different shapes and filled up a baking tray with them. For these earrings I lay the two shapes onto of each other slightly roughing up the surfaces where they over lap to help them stay together and become on shape on baking. I followed the instructions on the fimo packaging and pre heated the over and backed them for 30 an hour.
Once cooled I used the UHU glue to attach the jewellery findings ie the earring backs.
