Jurby Mice

[curiouswombat]

I went out with a friend and her sister a few days ago. Her sister was over and she had seen a poster about the Jurby Mice. As a knitter and crocheter she was interested.

I have seen some of the Jurby Mice in the past - I remember this occasion as it was just after I retired

Oh yes, and Amen to the hymn ... we had it as one of Dad's for his funeral.

I think my favourite is the underwater one, complete with mermouse

Aren't they fun! I knew you would recognise the hymn :)

All the tableaus are lovely and sweet! I like the one you like very much and I also like Belle's wedding.
And the owls!
They're all wonderful and what a lot of work and care went into creating it all.

There are so many little touches - and every year there are a few new mice and some of the tableaus change. You can even buy your own Jurby mouse - there are a selection for sale in the back of the church😊

Awwwww…those mice are so sweet!

I found a six-minute video from 2022 on YouTube. It provided a lot of useful context.

So cute! Dink has taken up crocheting and has made several cute little creatures. She'd enjoy seeing displays like these. :)

Oh well done her - I am hopeless at trying to follow crochet patterns.

Aren't they just!
