The service took place on Friday Nov 11 at the 12ft memorial on the corner of Newcastle Avenue and Breck Road.
It included a minute silence at 11am, and was attended by local Police Community Support Officers and members of the Talbot Ward PACT group.
Angela Ogden, who organised the knitting project, said: “It's a strong part of British history and it can't be forgotten. A lot of these were young men who literally gave their whole life to fight in that war.”
Here are some pictures from the service.
