Michael Harrigan, 75, resigned from his previous career to start his own trade in knitting.

A pensioner student in Scotland has turned his childhood hobby into a business as he prepares to graduate from a university involved in researching the craft.

He said: "At my age you have to keep your mind active, I think that's very important. Try not to think about it as a lot of work. If you take one day at a time and find something you're genuinely interested in, it's very enjoyable." Mr Harrigan said: "I wanted to learn why it was men who predominantly knitted these bonnets, how they did it and how they managed their businesses. I carried out research through the National Records of Scotland and found through death records that they were not particularly wealthy and that they passed on their craft to family members."
