Join me today to walk the Yarn Bomb Festival 2021 in Cosby Leicestershire

Cosby is a large pretty village that sits on a small brook that makes its way to the River Soar.
Given its name from old Scandinavian meaning farm or settlement, it first developed after the Danish invasion in the 9th Century. Although it is believed its history may go back to the Saxons and Romans due to the Fosse Way running close to the South Side of the village. Most of the modern village developed from the 17th century onwards.

Cosby’s history with Yarn began after farming boundaries were introduced in the 1700’s and the village became Industrial, with Framework Knitting its main trade.
Todays Yarn Bomb Festival runs for 25 days, Starting in Mid August and ending in Early September.
The festival is the original idea of the Cosby Crafters and it only started a few years ago but has already become a popular event since. Something that brings the whole community together, with old and young, schools, churches, residents all getting involved.

The festival is a charity, funded by a just giving page which can be found on there Facebook Page
