Mets Fans Set World Crocheting Record
Over 400 fans at Citi Field set the Guinness World Record for most people crocheting in one place yesterday, hooking together blue and orange yarn in honor of the Mets. National NeedleArts Association co-chair Lily Chin told the Daily News, "I thought this was a great team effort, because baseball is a team sport. I thought it was brilliant."
At the 4th annual "Stitch 'n' Pitch" event, 427 people crocheted for 15 minutes straight, setting a new world record. Unfortunately, the Guinness World Records website couldn't tell us what the previous record had been, or if any previous gathering had even warranted a record.
