Proposed New Group ~ Craft and Contact (Knit and Natter!)

Proposed New Group ~ Craft and Contact (Knit and Natter!) At the Admirals Landing every Thursday from 11.30 until 1 pm. This could be a good opportunity for new members to meet people and maybe ask questions they don't have chance to do at the coffee mornings, which can be busy and noisy. We will be taking on projects from various charities, such as prem baby clothes, crochet blankets for refugees etc, so donations of wool or any other crafting materials would be welcome. You don't have to make anything, just come for a coffee and chat! For more details please contact me on 444426. Dawn Group Co-Ordinator
