Cornard Knitting Club The club had another happy and successful year during 2007 with 225 garments going off to London in October 2007 for our charity ‘the Queen Mary’s Clothing Guild’. The quality and quantity produced by the group never ceases to amaze me. The group Christmas tree at St. Peter’s Church, Sudbury also brought favourable remarks to several of the members. It was great fun to make and assemble.
In November, I was lucky enough to be invited to the Service of Thanksgiving marking the 125th Anniversary of The Clothing Guild in The Queens Chapel of the Savoy in the presence of HRH Princess Alexandra, the Royal Patron to the Guild, who thanked everyone for the donations and continued interest.
We are already filling our knitting bags in readiness for October 2008. February 2008 has again been Woolly Hat Week for Trawler men from the British & International Sailors Society (BISS). We are also a very versatile group, following an urgent request we have just knitted 75 mice for the kittens at Bury Stray Cats home.
New members are always welcome. You do not need to be an expert, if fact, no experience is needed. So why not ‘knit & natter’ on Wednesdays between 9.30 and 12 Noon at The Community Drop-In in Poplar Road. There are no charges and we can provide all that you need.
