The group meets twice monthly, on the second and fourth Wednesday mornings, in members’ homes from 10:30 to 12:30 for knitting, stitchery, crafts, conversation, and refreshments. We invite members to submit items for sale at our Christmas Boutique stall, and welcome ideas for new creations. New members are always welcome: the first meeting is Sept. 14th.
