Back to Back Challenge - Winners 2014

Swalmen sheep to sweater challenge 2014 On May 31, 2014 an international team of knitters and spinners attempted to again break the Guinness World Record for shearing a sheep, spinning the yarn and knitting a sweater. They achieved a time of 5 hours 26 minutes and 31 seconds. This did not beat the record but it was again, as they have achieved for the last three years, the fastest time in the world for the year. It was also a new best time for a team from Mainland Europe. The record still stands at 4 hours 51 minutes and 14 seconds. The entire event was filmed, as evidence for the world record attempt. This video has been edited from three different cameras of varying quality. Some shots show the time, in red, in the corner. This is the actual time of day. The large digital display shows the time that has elapsed from the start.
