Weekend Knitting Saturday 29th June 2013

New Year, New Venue

Happy New Year, it's time to put all those knitty Christmas presents to good use and come out for an evening (or two) of knitting, crocheting and good company.  After lots of discussion and an exhausting search to replace the Slug and Lettuce (which wasn't ideal), we've found a new venue for the Tuesday evening group. So from now on you'll find us in The Red Lion Hotel from 7.30pm.  

The entrance is off the High Street just inside Red Lion Walk, if you come up the steps to reception, you'll find the seating areas and the group.  Hope to see you there :)

Thanks go to Nadia and everyone else who've spent the time finding and testing alternive venues, this one definate seems to be a winner!
