NYW Zoom Along

Introduction

Over the last few months everyone has been deprived of the opportunity to meet up with WI friends or take part in courses and events.

NYWFWI trustees have now decided the time has come for us to provide for our members an opportunity to have fun and acquire knowledge, skills and entertainment and possibly provide an encouragement for new members about what the WI has to offer.

The cost per course will be £5.00 per member, there are no additional software costs but you will require an internet enabled device ie a PC, iPad, tablet, mobile phone.

2nd December Wednesday	2.00pm	BBK01	New Ideas for an old craft Bell Bobbin Knitting I am sure some of you will remember French Knitting using a small thread bobbin with four nails in the top. We all liked to knit the tubes but could never think what to do with the finished result. This demonstration will put a modern twist on an old technique. I like to make matching accessories for clothes and for the knitters amongst you it is a good way to use up those precious yarns. I also use all sorts of different yarns and embellishments to make unique pieces. This craft is ideal for cosy nights by the fire and to share with younger members of the family. I have some hand turned hardwood bobbins for sale after the demonstration.
