Hopefully things will be easy to get to now.

We meet again tomorrow evening. Also we have now decided to meet every Monday so that people who can make it can come and people who can’t can come every other weekend, but at least you will be assured you will find at least a few of us in the pub on Monday evenings.
See you.

Can you let me know when the next meeting will be held. I came a few weeks ago with my daughter in law, enjoyed the company and would like to come again. I’m just not sure which week to turn up with the bank holiday last weekend.

Thanks

Trish

]]> Comment on My pointed needles collection by Betsy http://pointedneedles.com/2012/01/22/the-ebay-haul/#comment-106 Mon, 08 Oct 2012 14:58:26 +0000 https://pointedneedles.wordpress.com/?p=57#comment-106 I just found this site, looking online for the history of a brand of knitting needles called “Chester.” I found them in a thrift store in the US, and as my husband’s family came from Chester, I had to get them. I also collect old needles, both knitting and crochet. The early plastic needles get so brittle, though, and they need to be handled very gently. Besides the needles, I love to collect old knitting patterns, especially from the World War I era.

In the UK, are there pattern books for sale to recreate the look of Downton Abbey? That show is extremely popular over here, as was Upstairs, Downstairs 35 years ago. Downton Abbey is specctacular in high definition color, though. I always found Upstairs, Downstairs to be very dark video work.

Indeed you are very welcome. We have our next meeting following Monday evening at 7.00pm in the Faulkner pub in Hoole.
