Over the weekend, hundreds, possibly thousands of people participated in a mass-knit at the Science Museum. The event, called Stitched Science, also showcased many hand-made objects with a scientific theme, from Bunsen burners to planets. Click through the gallery for the cutest bit of science since Pavlov's kitten-puzzling experiments.

The event was organised by Stitch London who hold regular knit-themed meetups and events.
