Good morning hivers, a few days ago in the central square of my hometown a magnificent demonstration was held by an association that deals with combating violence against women, this demonstration has been held for some years by the Viva Vittoria association to which all the proceeds are donated.
This association has been fighting violence against women for years and has chosen the magnificent Piazza del Duomo in Pistoia for this event, one of the oldest medieval squares in Tuscany. Piazza del Duomo is a stone square with the Duomo of Pistoia and its large tower that stands out on the square and can be visited together with the bell tower for a few days a week, the square is surrounded by ancient buildings and is the heart of Pistoia, home to markets, fairs and exhibitions. Also home to the ancient town hall which contains precious statues by local artists and beautiful frescoed rooms. For this occasion the square became a magical place, many women dedicated themselves for months to hand-knit blankets and crochet squares, unfortunately I am a no-go with crochet and so I could not participate, however it took months and the work of many young and old women who lent their manual labor for a just cause, in fact it was possible to buy the blankets and the money went to charity for abused women. The square became a magnificent giant blanket, colorful, beautiful, yes you walked on colors, a truly unique experience that made the square even more beautiful and special. It seemed like being in a fairytale world and luckily after days of rain weather alerts that day the weather was decent! I leave you with some photos of the beautiful square decorated for the occasion, taken together with my mother @silviabeneforti who kept me company amd my friend chris on this day since my husband was unable to due to his knee dislocation.
Buenos días hiveros, hace unos días en la plaza central de mi ciudad natal se celebró una magnífica manifestación por parte de una asociación que se ocupa de combatir la violencia hacia las mujeres, esta manifestación la realiza desde hace algunos años la asociación Viva Vittoria a la cual se donan todos los beneficios.
Esta asociación lleva años luchando contra la violencia contra las mujeres y ha elegido para este evento la magnífica Piazza del Duomo de Pistoia, una de las plazas medievales más antiguas de la Toscana. La Piazza del Duomo es una plaza de piedra que alberga la Catedral de Pistoia y su gran torre que destaca sobre la plaza y que se puede visitar junto con el campanario durante unos días a la semana. La plaza está rodeada de edificios antiguos y es el corazón de Pistoia, sede de mercados, ferias y exposiciones. También alberga el antiguo ayuntamiento, que contiene preciosas estatuas de artistas locales y hermosas salas con frescos. Para esta ocasión la plaza se convirtió en un lugar mágico, muchas mujeres se dedicaron durante meses a tejer mantas y cuadrados a mano, lamentablemente soy una basura en el crochet y por eso no pude participar, sin embargo fueron necesarios meses y el trabajo de muchas mujeres jóvenes y mayores que dieron su trabajo manual por una causa justa, de hecho se pudo comprar las mantas y el dinero se destinó a la caridad para las mujeres maltratadas. La plaza se convirtió en un magnífico manto gigantesco, colorido, hermoso, sí caminaba sobre los colores, una experiencia verdaderamente única que hacía la plaza aún más bella y especial. Parecía que estábamos en un mundo de cuento de hadas y, afortunadamente, después de días de advertencias de lluvia, ¡ese día el clima era bueno! Les dejo algunas fotos de la hermosa plaza decorada para la ocasión, tomadas junto a mi madre @silviabeneforti quien me hizo compañía y mi amigo chrys en este día ya que mi esposo no pudo hacerlo debido a su rodilla dislocada.

Wow I'm so attracted to the beauty it's so amazing ❤️
A silent demonstration that carried the cries of the women victims.
I was delighted that they chose that place, because being a tourist area, the message was not only for the locals, but for the whole planet.
Love this! What a brilliant idea. We have a program in South Africa called 67 blankets which is for a similar cause. And now there is a specific company that makes long form yarn called 67 blankets and various colours and styles. Fantastic that this charity can support women in such a great way.
It's really amazing ♥️
Thanks 💕
