The group is made up of some beginners as well as very competent knitters and crocheters who offer each other instruction, advice and support. The group welcomes more people to go along and join them at their organised meeting times or they can collect patterns to knit at home, in the library or in the pub! “I want to see more people out hooking,” participant Lyn Dowling said.
