Knitting some Intestines

We went to the Bett Show a few weeks ago and there we saw a model of a Liver. It had been knitted so we thought we would have a go. After much searching on the net we finally found a pattern and so we have started.
The Model is life sized. We have started at the anus and rectum and we are now starting work on the large intestine. The small intestine is about 27 feet long itself and so will take a considerable amount of time to do.
Day by day the knitting goes on and the stuffing of them. The large is about half done in the picture.

Over the weeks the intestines continue to grow.








The large intestine is complete and now 20 feet or so of small intestine needs to be knitted.
