Knit for Victory - knitting garments during drive to provide goods to servicemen and women during the war - all from Life Magazine -

Some wonderful photos from the 1940's. These would make a great display for our knitting group at the Heritage Open Day at St. Edmund's in September!

About us

St Edmund's Crafty Knitters (formerly known as St. Edmund's Knit and Crochet Group) formed at the end of Jan 2012, the idea of a few members of the church congregation (who like knitting and crocheting!). We held an inital evening, and were pleased with the interest. Since then, we have met every second Tuesday morning of the month at 10am and every last Tuesday evening of the month at 7.30pm. We have two distinct groups but the overlap is becoming more blurred with the lighter evenings. We would love to welcome you at our sessions. Bring a friend or two! We meet at St Edmund's Church Hall, entrance is free, we just give a donation to cover the cost of filter coffee or tea and biscuits.
