Break-in at the Wool Shop!


In the early hours of Friday 2nd December, thieves broke into 'Jean's Wool Shop' and made an escape with 120 balls of Sirdar double knitting forest green wool, 10 cork button-making kits, two cases of Isle of Skye and 6 cartons of Benson & Hedges.

Police constable Hugh Dunnet said, "It looks like there is a fraudulent underground movement in operation here. Someone intends to disregard the island's copyright protection laws and try to knit themselves some fake knock-offs here. It's a well known fact that the latest design in knitted Christmas underpants is about to be displayed. These are hot items for copyright fraud and the public should be aware that copycat underpants might soon be on sale via disreputable sources. Tell-tale signs that you have bought a fake will be things like dropped stiches, due to the Isle of Skye, and some Benson & Hedges cigarette burns."

The photo above was taken from the shop's outside security camera and the public are being asked to come forward if they think they recognise either of the two suspicious shaddows. "It looks like the one on the left has stuffed the items up his coat in order to avoid detection," added PC Dunnet.
