Oh and a few of the attendees were interested in a regular knitting and knit repair group. Would anyone else be interested? In a regular group where you can work on hand knitting projects, and learn knitting repair techniques?

Thanks for running it, the needles have now dried nicely!
If there isn’t a group at the space I’ve seen some people at the effra social on the other side of brockwell park some evenings.

A lady once came in from “stitch’n’bitch”, a local sewing group (or chapter thereof).
