Knit Group, StichED and BitchED, every Tuesday, from 7@The Prince Albert


Au'Lait

Recommended Posts

The title says it all really, we meet weekly and knit, or crochet, and have a wee drink and a chat about yarn and other stuff.

We have a Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/groups/105594917610/ (which is where you'll fine the most activity, it's regularly used and updated)

and a Ravelry page: http://www.ravelry.com/groups/stitched (which is brand spanking new, so please join up and hopefully once a few more of us are on there it will become a useful kind of hub for us to share projects and information)

and a Pinterest page: https://www.pinterest.com/spohlaz/stitched-and-bitched/ (for yarn porn, mostly).

Any crafty types are welcome to come along, bring your project and join us for a drink (or two, perhaps 4 on a really rocking night) or get yourself some pretty yarn and some needles or a hook and we'll teach you!

Hey Yarnies,

it's the Cherry Tree for us again.


I think it's time to start thinking about Christmas projects. Not beause I've just been to the supermarket and have come away feeling all ready to break out the tinsel and brandy, but because some of us are not terribly quick workers, and these things have to be FINISHED by December.

So bring along any inspirational ideas you've seen on ravelry or pinterest, or that have just popped into your pretty head and need some help to make real.


LET'S BAUBLE!


(BTW, I still have ping pong balls left from last year, when I completely failed to make EVEN ONE bauble if you want one, or a few.)

We're venturing out of the Cherry Tree again for adventures in a new (quieter, better lit, albeit a bit off the beaten track). Tomorrow night we'll be meeting at The Prince Albert, on Bellenden Road, SE15 4QY. I'll be late, as usual, but others will be there from 7.

Hope to see some of you tomorrow !

Hey Yarnies, short notice I know but if any of you are free Friday night (after 8) I'm going to get out a knitting machine or two at my place (Forest Hill) and have a play. Come along if you can! (PM me for address)

There will be cake.

There will be wine.

There will be yarn.

See you then?

Hey Yarnies! Who's coming tonight? If you are going to show your face (and your knitting) I have a bit of a request. If you happen to have any glass jars that haven't been turfed into the recycling yet then please could I have them?

Hope to see you tonight!

    • @first mate  just Google the Green's policies and AI should summarise.  For sustainable transport this includes more initiatives to get people out of their cars as you would expect.  I've always been broadly in favour of their environmental policies, although feel they should go further on culture change. Some of their national policies are bonkers and/or unrealistic - as are most of Reform's.  Historically fringe parties could come up with nonsense, as they will never govern.  Of course whilst I don't expect that Polanski will ever be PM that other bloke could be.  Worrying times, particularly if the Greens split the centre/left vote.  It would be better if One Nation Tories could split the centre vote (and drag some of those on the right), but they don;t have a lot of influence in the current party. One particularly bonkers policy was one element of the Greens who wanted us out of Europe, not because of Europe being pro market/capitalism but because we needed a recession, deindustrialise, so we would all go back to the middle ages.  Or something along those lines.  I lost some friends because of this. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p03y5trr#:~:text="Protectionism against developing countries%2C savage austerity in,the case for either remain or leave. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2016/jun/08/eu-reform-green-brexit
    • I've planted a meadow out front, it needs a lot of work.  It's lovely until August and then grotty until the next spring as once the flowers have died back it doesn't have a lot going for it.  Clover is the last one to flower.  It will get admiring looks when in bloom. I laugh quite loud when I pass one neighbour with plastic grass, not only is it dead to nature it is not even laid well,   I should be crying.  
    • Andy did a number of jobs for me and was very reasonably priced. He's very helpful, arrives on time, pays attention to detail and a nice man. I'll be using him again and recommending him to my friends.
