Knitting and Craft Club

Wolverton Library hosts its Knitting and Craft Club on Friday 30 October, from 1pm to 2.30pm. It's a drop-in session for all ages, so you can just turn up with whatever you're working on and settle in for the afternoon. It's one of several Knit and Natter groups running across Milton Keynes libraries, and this one is open to adults who already knit and stitch, rather than being a class for beginners.

The group is called Knit, Natter and Stitch, and the name tells you exactly how it works: you bring your own project and spend the session working on it while chatting with the people around you. It's not a tuition session, so there's no teacher at the front and no set lesson to follow. Instead, it's a social hub where people share ideas, pick up new skills from each other, and make friends. If you've got a project you've been chipping away at on your own, this is a good place to bring it out and get some company.

And it's not just for knitters. The 'stitching' part covers a fair bit of ground, so you're welcome to bring along crochet or cross-stitch projects too. If you're a carer or a companion, you're welcome to come along and keep the person you're supporting company while they work. It's a relaxed, low-pressure way to spend a few hours with other people who enjoy the same things.

Admission is free, and the session runs from 1pm to 2.30pm at Wolverton Library in Milton Keynes. It's a drop-in, so you don't need to book ahead—just bring your work and join in.
