Knit Together!

WE WANT TO KNOW…

Tell us about your local shop, group or charity! Contact details on p31 Share the knit love

Welcome to this month’s round-up of all that’s best in our wonderful knitting community! We start in Manchester with our knitter’s guide to this vibrant northern metropolis (right) – it’s a city that has a lot to offer! We’ve also found some great local yarn shops that run regular craft clubs in-store, what could be better? Our store of the month is Craft Sisters in Devon, and we catch up with the fundraising ladies from the Prosecco & Purls group in Caerleon, South Wales as well as hearing about Wool Couture’s exciting new plans. This month’s great causes to knit for are both children’s charities – The Archie Foundation in the Aberdeen area (page 82) and Manchester-based Francis House (page 83). Don’t forget to tell us about your latest club or charity news, and remember to send in your community stories and pictures.

We’re looking forward to hearing from you!
