West Cape May Knitters Featured on CBS Evening News

By Jack Fichter

WEST CAPE MAY — The mystery knitters have again brought the borough national media attention with a report on CBS News.
The network filmed a report here including video of the actual midnight knitters which aired on the CBS Evening News with Katie Couric March 23.
Just after the last snowstorm, knitting began appearing on lampposts and trees, as if someone was making sweaters to warm up the shivering trees and cheer up depressed lampposts. Knitting has turned up on fence posts, stop sign poles and even on the cord on a pay phone at the 7-Eleven on Broadway and Sunset Boulevard.
As mysteriously as the tree sweaters and other decorative items appeared in Wilbraham Park, the knitting disappeared in the early morning hours of March 12.
