Next Meeting Tuesday 1st March

This month we will be learning basic crochet stitches…. 
Crochet seems to be the craft of the moment.
Please bring some double knitting yarn & a number 4 crochet hook if you want to give it a go (don’t forget to check out your local charity shop, some sell hooks for 10p!)
Remember a large hook & thicker yarn will make it easier.

If you don’t want to join in just bring your own project.

See you all there!

January Meeting

Thanks to all those who came on Tuesday 4th January….. apologies for the issues with the Phoenix closing at 8pm but I hope you all enjoyed the evening.
January was all about crocheted granny squares….
I think you all did really well in a short period of time…. don’t forget to keep practicing!
It was lovely to have 4 new people joining us…..
Here’s a few things that were being made….
And not forgetting this masterpiece

As we had to cut this meeting short I thought we’d continue with granny squares in February.
Please bring yarn & a number 4 hook if you would like to join in.
See you all on Tuesday 1st February.
