New member at knitting group
Jan. 6th, 2011 10:07 amA few months ago, as part of my resolution to get more of a social life, I started a new knitting group locally. It's very small, usually only two of us show up, but we get on well, so continue meeting once a month.
Yesterday morning, I got a phone call from a lady who'd been given my number by the owner of a local knitting shop (I'd left details of the group with her). Perfect timing, as we meet on the first Wednesday of the month.
She came along yesterday evening to our gathering in the cafe at the local gym and it really was perfect timing for her. She was stuck on her first pair of socks and couldn't understand the instruction as to what to do next. I showed her how to shape the heel and Jenny showed her how to pick up the new stitches to turn everything round and start the gusset.
She was a very happy knitter! She left with a real sense of accomplishment and we both felt really happy at having been able to help her.
We're all three looking forward to next month.
