New Knitting/craft group. We are starting a knitting circle at our house, in Fairmilehead. It is an informal group where children can join in but we've found so far that they prefer to just play with each other. At the moment it is every other Wednesday, next date 11th June. Bring your own project or just come along to get some ideas. I could show any non-knitters how it's done, and I also fancy making more Waldorf doll's at some point, if any one wants to join me in that. Any kind of sewing/crochet project could be brought along, or I have some spare wool and needles, and patterns. The group is 2-4pm and there could be a bring and share lunch if anyone wants to come straight from school. Contact Sarah-Ann (Ilana's mum) or Charlie (who has Jasmine in class 3). Phone 0131 445 7017.
