12.06: 5 Minutes with Eilish Tuite

Eilish, who is studying sculpture in L.S.A.D, has created a project called URBAN KNIT which aims to cover an empty retail space in Limerick in a warm knitted blanket. Eilish is asking for Limerick’s communities to get involved and knit their own part of this tapestry, with the only requirements being that your patch be knitted and A4 size. Vodafone have come on board to sponsor the project and Eilish has secured a building on Bedford row, through Creative Limerick, to ‘wear’ the finished project. It’ll take 3,000 patches so get out your needles, get creative and send your A4 Patch to Urban Knit, LSAD, Clare Street, Limerick or email urbanknit@gmail.com
