We have eight members with a wealth of knitting skills. Our Norwegian member has introduced us to some fascinating knitting done in Norway. Some of us are now knitting slippers, each made up of 8 squares joined together and then folded and stitched up. You then wash with a pair of jeans on a hot wash. Miraculously, the shrunken knitting appears as a pair of felted wool slippers.

Others are knitting sweaters, shawls, bobble hats or crocheting "Granny blankets". Combining this with some lively chatter, tea and home-made cake makes for a very enjoyable afternoon!

Due to space limitations, this group is now full but if you would like to be added to the waiting list, then please contact Rosemary Johnson,, the convenor, using the email link at the top of this page,
