Family Knit-together Launch Session

Knit-together has started! 

The very first session was of Knit-together happened last Tuesday. On a beautiful spring morning we took over the Windmill in Rayleigh and got started with making decorations for Hockley Wild Woods Festival and the Olympic Torch Relay event in Chelmsford . Finger knitting was the order of the day and this young man did a sterling job of knitting the longest bit! 

We also tried out pompom making, huge wheel knitting and even knitting on needles!
