We went to the Hare Arms once again, had the Old Coach House all to ourselves and this year, 23 members came :) We did Secret Santa, and had a lovely meal. A great way to round off 2013.<br />

Our official birthday was on 31st January. Today being the first time we met since that date, we celebrated our birthday with a pot luck buffet and a birthday cake. Twenty two of our members dropped in during the morning. We are also now called "St Edmund's Crafty Knitters".<br />

It's also more appropriate now than it was a year ago, as increasingly, group members are bringing projects to work on that are not knitting or crochet. These are the choices we brainstormed this morning. So.........<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-St6jQp3WB_8/UOx2BWTHymI/AAAAAAAAFG4/siuml5nrm2M/s1600/crafty+knitters.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-St6jQp3WB_8/UOx2BWTHymI/AAAAAAAAFG4/siuml5nrm2M/s1600/crafty+knitters.jpg" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
<br />
I like the play on the word crafty with this one. 4 syllables but fewer words.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-9neevYI3PZg/UOx2WELqkKI/AAAAAAAAFHA/PavFouRwzIA/s1600/crafters.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-9neevYI3PZg/UOx2WELqkKI/AAAAAAAAFHA/PavFouRwzIA/s1600/crafters.jpg" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
This one leaves you in no doubt that this is what we do...craft :-) Plus it only has 2 syllables.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
<br />
Five syllables makes this one a bit long, but it's in the running.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
<br />
This is clever, covers all bases, and is just one word (but 4 syllables). Incidentally it was the name suggested by Fr James from St Edmund's Church ;-) <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
No, it isn't just a playschool or nursery name. There are several craft shops and groups with this name. 4 syllables<br />
but concise.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
You get the idea......4 syllables, but nice.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
and just so you can see them all close together.........<br />

Last night 16 of us went to the Hare Arms at Stow Bardolph for our Christmas meal. We had a wonderful evening, with lovely food, great service and exceptional company. The menu was extensive and everyone ate really well. When it got to coffee time, we distributed the secret santa gifts. It's amazing what you can buy with a £5 limit! There were candles, mugs, smellies, doggy treats, a tablecloth, chocolates, plants and lots more. Photos below......<br />
<br />
The first ones are taken in the bar where we congregated before the meal. <br />

We also met Pat, Mary, Sue and Jane their care worker. Beryl told us about the lace making she used to teach at evening classes. Elizabeth had made a delicious chocolate cake for us all, and we were also served with coffee. There was a lovely peaceful atmosphere, and the ladies are obviously well cared for. We hope to go again before long. </div>

Well, well, well we have made it to the list of recommended blogs for beginners to blogging, that appeared in this month's Let's Knit magazine. Wow, what an accolade. <a href="http://www.punkrocktwinsknitting.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/057.pdf">Here's the page</a> it appears on: Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-893158724254958955.post-36707522112588959932012-10-22T12:06:00.000+01:002012-10-22T12:06:49.838+01:00St Mungo's Project completedI have just got back from Downham Post Office, where I posted our parcel of orange woolly hats for <a href="http://www.mungos.org/woollyhatday_2012">St Mungo's Woolly Hat Day</a> on 26th October.

This is a great cause. In addition, St Mungo's are currently auctioning <a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/st-mungos-woolly-hat/m.html?item=281001667681&pt=UK_Hats&hash=item416d012c61&_sop=16">celebrity hats on eBay</a> for the appeal. Already, Neil Tennant (Pet Shop Boys) is at £1,727.00, and Eric Clapton's is at £770.00. They are the two highest ones right now. The auction ends next weekend. All money raised is for the charity. </div>

Downham Market Community Fair took place in the Town Hall today, and we were there! We had some of our St Mungo's woolly hats on show. We sold yarn, patterns, books, and Donna brought some of her stitch markers and project bags. The highlight of the day was the little boy who hovered on and off throughout the morning and eventually admitted to wanting to learn to knit! Go Leon! The lovely Matthew Usher from the EDP arrived in time to record the moment!<br />
<br />
Monday's online EDP24 had these photos on their website (and the one of Sheila is in the paper too):<br />

I've been getting some help (or is it hindrance) this week with my woolly hat knitting. Pebbles isn't our cat. He lives next door, but visits from time to time. One evening this week he settled down right on top of my orange wool. He looks so cute I can't get annoyed with him.<br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
Here he is sporting my child size hat. He was a bit disgruntled, so I had to snap this shot quickly. Can't blame him really.<br />
<br />
This is my 2nd hat for <a href="http://www.mungos.org/woollyhatday_2012">Woolly Hat Day</a>, which this year is on 26th October. It came out smaller than my previous one, as I made a mess with the decreases.

On Saturday 8th September St Edmund's Church in Downham Market held it's <a href="http://www.heritageopendays.org.uk/directory/hod009782e">annual Heritage event</a> for Heritage Open Days. and this year we had a stall there! Coral set up and ran it all day, with just an odd break here and there. Here's Donna joining her from her Lubi-loo craft stall which she ran with her mum.<br />
We sold wool, patterns and knitting magazines. Coral was also an excellent spokeswoman for our group. We will see tomorrow morning if she managed to recruit any new members!!<br />

<br />
We set up a craft activity in case any children attended. Last year there were hardly any young children, but this year, the advertising must have paid off, because there were lots of mums with pushchairs and youngsters. Below Coral is demonstrating how to make a Mexican God's eye.<br />

Just before midday the rector, Fr James Mather arrived in the middle of the church field and proceeded to place himself in the stocks! He was wearing his cassock, but that didn't prevent him from being pelted with wet sponges for the next 20 minutes! Here's Florence about to launch her wet sponge at him!</div>

Well, having knitted 5 of them, I've now written down the pattern. Here goes:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You need white wool and the nearest you can get to rhodamine red wool (mine is magenta)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
4mm needles</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
a darning needle</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
K=knit, K2tog=knit 2 together, w=white, m=magenta </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The triangle is knitted in garter stitch (all plain) but there is a right side(RS) and a wrong side (WS) as you can see from the photos. When you are working on the wrong side, ensure you take the working colour to the other side. I also twisted the wools where the colour changed to prevent 'holes' down the sides of the H. All even rows are WS, all odd rows are RS.</div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I decided to decrease every 2 rows once having completed the magenta H, but maybe it might be better to continue with decreasing very 4 rows instead like the top half. In which case repeat rows 29, 31, 33, 35, 37, 39, 41, and 43 twice more each time. Hope that makes sense! </div>

Our knitted bunting is to go across the front of our <a href="https://www.facebook.com/st.edmunds.knitters">St Edmund's Knit and Crochet Group</a> stand at the Open Day on Sat 8th Sep. We are planning a heritage theme, but you'll have to wait and see! There will be a three day flower festival inside church with the theme of "Music, music, music" over the Friday, Saturday and Sunday. On Saturday, for Open day, the field will be full of community and local history stands, craft stalls, traditional games, a book stall, plant stall, a beer tent and refreshments inside the church hall. On Sunday evening there will be a special church service at 6pm to round off the weekend. Arrangements are not yet finalised, and if last year is anything to go by, we will still be organising events right up to the weekend itself! </div>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-893158724254958955.post-44701093695305509702012-07-13T20:17:00.001+01:002012-07-13T20:18:27.597+01:00St Mungo's Woolly Hat Day<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Julie has her own <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/WatercoloursandLace">Etsy shop</a> selling her hand dyed wool. Might have been raining when we left, but we all still had a great natter while we were crafty with our knits. Continuing to plan our day out to the Ally Pally on 11th October. Most people think the Hunstanton knitting group starting at Cafe Blah Blahh tomorrow is just too far, which is a shame.<br />

Brothers, Richard & Stewart Ellis invite knitters on board to sit, relax and view next season's yarns whilst wending your way along the river. We first met them 3 weeks ago at our Knit in Public Day and now we were taking advantage of them being moored here in Downham Market overnight, before heading off to the south of England. Although the guys are often in East Anglia with their van, it has been 4 years since they last brought the boat here, and it will probably be another 4 years before it returns. Six members of the group were free to visit the boat today, plus we invited local talented craftswoman and author <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sue_Welfare">Sue Welfare</a>, and local reporter for the Lynn News, Jo Garner, who were both delighted to join us for our jaunt.</div>
