Why has a knitted tank rolled into Llandudno?
Andrew Dobbs PhotographyA knitted life-sized tank has rolled into Llandudno after being created to commemorate the 80th anniversary of D-Day.
About 50 volunteers created the tank, measuring 24ft (7.3m) in length, 9ft (2.7m) in width and 7ft (2.1m) in height.
Another exhibit, dubbed a modern day Bayeux Tapestry, tells the story of the war-time landings in 80 woollen panels at the resort's Holy Trinity Church.
Hundreds of knitters from the UK, Europe, USA and New Zealand created panels for the Longest Yarn.
The knitted tank was created by Ripon Community Poppy Project in North Yorkshire.
And it was modelled on a Churchill AVRE tank which was built nearby.
Stuart Martin from the project said: "When we started the poppy celebrations we also wanted to promote Ripon and having them down in Llandudno can only be good thing."
The tank is on show at Victoria shopping centre from Saturday until 2 November, and the Longest Yarn between 2-28 October.
The D-Day landings saw more than150,000 Allied troops descend on the beaches of Normandy during World War Two in June 1944.
