A lot of you ask me about the other members of the club and most are almost always surprised at our demographics. We are a bunch of 20s and 30 somethings coming together every fortnight after work for some long awaited dedicated time for knitting amidst the crazy life of full time work, kids and Internet shopping!

After a year in existence, here are some of us on our last pre-Christmas meeting –

As you can see we are normal!

PointedNeedles started with a simple desire to have a knitting club in the neighbourhood that was accessible to full time working people rather than the other afternoon clubs.

We have amongst us chemical engineers, primary school science teachers, environmental agency researchers, university lecturers and staff, physiotherapists, HR managers and more… Lively conversations and a healthy dose of urban humour that’s what makes PointedNeedles. Come join there’s plenty of room….
