August meeting - Gossip Purl

Sunday, 26 August 2012 § 0

Our August meeting was Gossip Purl, a knit and natter session.

After the usual business we sat down to enjoy an evening of crafting. We had some of our expert knitters on hand to give advice, and those who didn't want to knit brought along other craft projects to work on.

An informal and relaxing evening in excellent company.






Slipknit - Knit a Cake

Monday, 5 September 2011 § 0

Our September workshop was called Slipknit - Knit a Cake and we had the fabulous Siobhan teaching us how to make calorie-free cakes!

Here she is with some of her creations, and a few made by Hayley and Helen Doyle too. 

Don't they look fab?!

The girls soon got stuck in. We had a mix of experienced knitters and some complete beginners and everyone got on very well thanks to Siobhan's expert guidance and the advice from her helpers.

Here's Helen pulling a silly face while she explains the intracacies of knitting!

It's not too bad once you get into the rhythm!

Several people managed to get their cakes completely finished, and most others weren't far off.

You may have also noticed the different background - that's because we are now in our new venue! It's beautiful and we can't wait for everyone else to see it at our meeting next week.
