Interview with Judith Palmer, Director of the Poetry Society:
"To mark our 100th birthday I wanted to think of a project on a grand-scale which lots of people could participate in – something that was about Poetry but which also summoned up the idea of ‘Society’ – to reflect all the thousands of people who’ve kept the Society going since 1909.
It being Christmas, the Christina Rossetti poem came into my head “What can I give him, Poor as I am? If I were a shepherd, I would bring a lamb;” So – what skills could I offer the centenary? – I thought – 'I CAN KNIT'."
