Stacking up the squares for Lily

Plenty of crochet, knitting, coffee and chat at our meeting again this week

Mostly we are making 20cm squares at the moment to send to LILY (Love in the Language of Yarn)  who make them into blankets for Syrian refugees.

Many of us crochet or knit at home too and we admired 2 stacks of colourful knitted squares.  We think we will have 3 blankets full of squares to send of by the end of the month – that’s over 100 squares and 3 refugee children wrapped in a warm blanket and the knowledge people are thinking of them.
We meet every Wednesday afternoon to knit and crochet and chat and enjoy great coffee and tea (and often cake or scones too).  We are growing all the time and welcome anyone who wants to craft items for charity.  If you want to join us fill in the contact form on the right hand side and we’ll send you all the details of our next meetings.
