Herring Tales: Poor Man's Wealth Scottish Fisheries Museum Podcasts

    • Documentales

‘Poor Man’s Wealth’ is a story inspired by the Scottish tradition of travellers’ tales, featuring a travelling tailor, three silver herring and three knitting witches!

Wrap up warm and tune in for this spooky tale set on the Moray Firth coast!

Collaborative Artist Jan Bee Brown created these stories bespoke for Knitting the Herring. The tales were fashioned in the spirit of gansey knitting – unravelling and reknitting, combining stories like stitches to create something new to share. The soundtrack was composed by Sound Artist Max Lamprecht.
