Library Craft Club Relaunched

By Andrew Watson, on 1 May 2018

Icelandic jumperAfter a temporary hiatus, the Library Craft Club which ran from 2007-2015 has been relaunched!  Meeting on a monthly basis this time, sessions will alternate between the first Tuesday and Thursday of each month so that those on part-time schedules have a chance to join in.

We meet in Room 417 in the Science Library between 12.30 and 1.30 pm. You don’t need to be competent at any craft. Simply drop in (with your lunch if you wish) any time during that hour to see what’s going on, catch up with your colleagues and allow yourself to be inspired.  There’s a box of materials you can dip into to get yourself started.

Knitting has always tended to take precedence, but over the years enthusiasts have brought along crochet, tapestry, origami, beading and even spinning (we have a drop spindle and fleece in the Craft Club box for those who fancy having a go).

So why not drop in? Email me if you’d like to be added to the mailing list. I can also add you to sessions on Outlook so they will appear in your calendar.  Forthcoming sessions:

  • Thursday 3rd May (introduction to crochet)Knitted leaf
  • Tuesday 5th June
  • Thursday 5th July
  • Tuesday 7th August
  • Thursday 6th September
  • Tuesday 2nd October
  • Thurdsay 1st November
  • Tuesday 4th December
