Welcome!
Welcome to the blog for the Big Knitters knitting groups! Those of you who have been to the shop will know what a lovely, friendly and relaxed environment has been created. It is hoped that the groups will be an extention of this!
There will be two groups a month. One, on a Monday evening, and one on a Saturday morning. Please see relevant posts for 2009 dates for each.
The groups will be run by me, Antonia. I am a new knitter but have been greatly encouraged by "the girls" and am happy to help where I can. Thankfully there will be expert advice available at the groups for those, like me, who are just starting out but it is hoped that it willbe nice and relaxed and we will all help each other.
As time goes on I hope people will submit photographs of finished items so that they can be proudly displayed on the blog! I will never forget the pride I felt when I knitted my first hat!! Quite an achievement and took much concentration and quite a bit of "expression" along the way!!
If people have any questions about the group you can contact me by email at;
antonia.bigknitterscardiff@ntlworld.com
or by mobile on 07974 812670
Text is great because I have unlimited texts but not minutes!!
I look forward to meeting you but meanwhile please feel free to ask questions.
are you sitting comfortably....
Antonia's first hat!
Just to kick us off here is a piccy of my first hat! It took a whole weekend but I was really chuffed with it! I only started knitting earlier in the year and am now hooked (pun intented!)!
I am currently setting up a database of group members so if you would like to be on it please let me know your name, email address, landline and mobile number and I'll add you on! The details will only be retained by myself and the shop - just to ensure that we don't duplicate!
And finally, hope this makes you smile as much as it did me...makes me wonder if that haircut is so important after all!!
