Another Newbie!

Today we welcome another newbie on board - Beatrice Lea is on holiday at the moment and looking to join us as a charity knitter - welcome on board Beatrice! We are delighted to have you!

The Lion Brand website is doing very well attracting new members to the group - thank you Lion Brand!

One of our local members Margaret has been ever so busy knitting 'boobs' for the breastfeeding project and now has over 2 dozen waiting in the wings to be added to the box for Tommee Tippee. I am really looking forward to going down to Newcaslte to meet up with Avril and the midwives - it is great to see where things are going!

I will try to get the hang of adding photos to these posts as I have already got quite a few really good ones from the Knitathon in June. As you will see I have cracked it! There is a box of 'boobs' sitting waiting to be bagged up!

The second one shows some of the wonderful brightly coloured baby sets I made for Africa for the Baby Pack project - remeber if you are knitting for this one don't knit all in white as this is the colour of mourning over there! The other one is a mountain of knitted scarves, boobs, squares and baby things which were done for the Knitathon - we had hundreds of things made in advance of the 3 day event so there were lots of packages to be sent off to the various charities after that!

Now that I have figured it out I will keep posting photos as we go along to let you see how we are all doing!

Happy Knitting!
