The Ecton “GUTS”

You might be wondering what the “GUTS” has to do with Ecton? Not a lot really except that one of our members, Jane Essex, has access to a delightful teaching aid for biologists - guts knitted by Carol Fereday - complete with oesophagus, stomach, two sets of intestines (20 odd feet of them) and an appendix. There is a picture of the guts below and, on the right Bob Thompson demonstrates how the guts are (is) used as a teaching aid; gradually removing this extensive knitted piece from his “abdomen”. If you would like a knitted guts please contact Jane Essex directly at:
