What you need to know

Come and join us for a knit-along evening creating models inspired by eminent chemist and mathematician, Alexander Crum Brown. During the evening, we would like knitters to contribute towards  a group knitting project – the creation of a rock salt (sodium chloride) unit cell - inspired by Alexander Crum Brown to be later displayed at the University of Glasgow. If time permits, knitters will be able to explore other mathematics-chemistry Crum Brown inspired knitting. Yarn and patterns will be provided but please bring needles - size 4mm.  Spaces are limited for this event; booking is essential.
