Event Description

Knit or crochet a shawl or lap blanket to be sent to the recipient as a ‘hug in a shrug’ to wrap around them when they are feeling low and feel the love for them in every stitch.
The group also discuss ideas, share patterns and generally have a laugh and a good old chat!

If you are interested please get in touch with Anna before attending.
