KNIT YOUR WAY INTO THE NEW YEAR

Due to popular request I am starting a knitting group. All skill levels--we will even teach you to knit!

Thursday, January 3rd, at 7:00 pm.聽 I would also be willing to do one in the afternoon at say 2:00 so that those that can't make one can make the other. Once we get organized we can try to find a time that works for as many as possible.

Pass the word, I also teach both knitting and crochet and do just about all of it including lace.聽

If you are interested send me an email at mrellan.harahan[at]gmail.com聽 and I will send you my address.聽 Be sure to let me know what time is best for you.

Hi,

thank you for keeping the thread alive. I have sent you an email couple of days ago, however I am not sure you have received it (have not got an answer yet).
I would be happy to lend crochet hooks, needles or give some yarn if anyone interested.

Happy New Year and I am looking forward to Thursday

Hi,

I have not advertised it yet, because I haven't got the keys to our place yet. But the landlord is optimistic and is going to be ready before the end of February. The shop is going to be in Gzira, very close to the seafront, so easy to find and and easy to get there.

Corrin,

I have I have two small children as well, fortunately they are in school in the mornings now, but I am planning to offer some child friendly gathering as well.

pevi that would be great!

Is there much need for knitting and crocheting over there though (?) I was feeling slightly gloomy that i've just got into it and now i'm potentially moving to a country where there isn't a great need for knit wear

? Im thinking I might need to find myself some lovely cotton yarns. Are you opening a knitting shop? You may have just volunteered yourself as my best friend

My son will be in nursery when we make the move (probably summer school by the time we move over) but I will have my 1 yo who I wont have anyone to leave with in the day time and is notoriously unsettled in the evenings. Putting her in a room with people with pointy things is a recipe for disaster.

Hi Corrin,

not really a yarn shop (although I would like to source and sell some yarn, as unfortunately Malta lacks quality yarns on sale. I know that everything can be ordered on the internet, but I am old school, I want to touch:)).

What right now I am planning and hopefully open in couple of weeks time is a workshop, where we plan to offer arts/crafts courses for children and adults, sell products made by local artists, but also offer a place for informal gatherings like a knitting club.

I will keep you posted.
