Over the years, the Artknits have collected over 1,000 vintage items from the 1800s and the early 1900s. Our stuff like jewellery, knitted items, old photos, books, and many other stuff.

We have showcase a lots of items like our popular golden earrings from 1897 and our knitted shawls, toys, clocks, blankets, and hats from 1902-1989.

Artknits Thornhill articles: Lets learn about cells!

So, the cell theory states that living things consist of cells, that a cell is the basic structural and function the unit of life. And they are all cells come from pre-existing cells. So, scientist have been study living things for over 400 years. Later, the development of the microscope allows scientist to see cells for the first time because, it was hard to see. So, they can develop the cell theory by basic characteristics, of living things. You have to learn cells from other living things because, you have to learn what is the cell is look like, of its size or complexity. And it reminds us of studying of how living things work.
