SIR,

Monmouth is a great place to live- what would make it better? A Knitters Circle. As a knitter myself, I have discovered that the one thing knitters enjoy is a good natter!

The idea would be to meet for a couple of hours, on a Friday afternoon, at a town centre venue. Interested?

I started a similar group in Coleford, when I worked there, and in no time there were a dozen members. We would meet to encourage one another, to share ideas and patterns and, of course, to put the world to rights! It is likely that 1 would be able to supply wool as well.

Knitting is taking off in a big way just now; a group like this a tremendous help to beginners.

If this appeals to you, please contact me on 07837 639157. Once 1 know the degree of interest, I will soon be able to get a group up and running.

Mandy Worthen.
