*** Space in Towerbank Thursday Class ***

For the first time in years I have a space available in my Thursday knitting class for Towerbank pupils ( p3 and above). I pick up the knitters after school and you pick up your knitter from The Wash House at 5pm 😀. We are a fun, relaxed, creative and friendly bunch who mainly knit but also try out lots of other fibre arts. Just get in touch if you'd like to bag that space for your creative wee one....

Well look at that - first week back and 2 projects finished. Caitlin has really persevered with her mug hug and Penny is perfecting her very own cat pattern!

And our most popular pattern? Teddy wins every time!

A wee flavour of the prep that goes into a full day workshop - each activity needs to suit lots of different ages and abilities, and I want everyone to go home proud of the lovely, little things they’ve made that day.

It was all purples and lavender today for the first in my series of summer workshops, a wee departure from my usual textile arts in the afternoon to try wreath making with herbs, roses and of course lavender. What a lovely day!

26/06/2024

If only we had Smell-O-Vision on fb…..the scent of these rustic rosemary, lavender, mint and rose wreaths is amazing! Crafters will be making these at my next workshop on 3rd July. Only one space left, just get in touch 🥀

My lavender fairy friend wanted you all to know that I have one space left in my craft class next week where we’ll be making more lavender dolls and other divine smelling, lavender crafts…just get in touch

Teeny, tiny Billie and Isobel and Billie and Isobel today ♥️

There might just be a wee tear in my eye here…saying goodbye to a fabulous bunch of kids who are moving up to high school. I taught their older brothers and sisters how to knit and have had this lot with me since they were in P2. They stuck with me all through Covid when we went online, then knitting in gardens until we eventually got back into school. My loss is Porty High’s gain but I’m
going to miss them! Good luck Billie, Isobel, Rory and Rosie # #

Ava loves snipping and shaping Pom poms - she’s become a bit of an expert! She says she is going to be an artist when she’s older and create ‘Pom art’ . Can’t wait!

Definitely one of the weirdest materials I’ve cast on with! Come and try knitting with inner tubes at Porty Community Energy’ Sea Rising Festival on Saturday afternoon on the prom 🧶 ☀️ 🌊 🚲 🎺
