Stitch and Bitch for the Autumn

Last week, we were supposed to be meeting up again to learn how to knit with wire from a visiting speaker (well, Sharon's brother). Unfortunately, he was too ill to attend, but Sharon brought pictures of his work with her on a laptop, and very impressive they looked. We had a very jolly time even without the demonstration, and a new member who had driven quite a distance - so I hope she wasn't too disappointed, or thought we were all too mad!
We have a slightly amended schedule for the rest of the year, with free-form knitting/crocheting on 1st October, more free-form, circular knitting and socialising for Hallowe'en on 29th October (so as not to clash with either Hay-on-Fire, which is on again this year, or Bonfire Night), and felt pipe cleaner dolls on December 3rd (possibly fairies, or angels, since it's so close to Christmas).
Some of us turn up on other Thursdays between 6pm and 8pm at the Swan, just to bring our own projects along and have a chat.
