Woolly Family Day 2nd November

Woolly Open Day November 2nd 2014

Normally we meet on a Wednesday, but that means that lots of people miss out on all our Woolly goings on. So to address this, we are having a Sunday meeting on November 2nd in Foxt Village Hall. As with all our meetings this event is open to all comers, and we are particularly hoping that families and young people will be able to come along and join us.

We have put together a range of activities to suit different age groups. At all the various demonstrations we have done at local shows there have been children wanting to have a go at spinning, weaving, knitting, crochet, knitting nancy etc. Well at this event they can have a try. Some children are attracted to the machines and associated tools - spinning wheels, carding machines, looms - others enjoy the creative process and want to make something they can take home. Our creative group has come up with lots of fun activities. We are hoping to cater for all interests and maybe pass on to the next generation some of our collective knowledge of these traditional crafts.

We will be at Foxt Village Hall from 11am to 4pm on Sunday 2nd November and there will be cakes and refreshments available. We are charging £3 per family to help cover the costs of the room hire and some of the activities that we are putting on. Please contact us for further details or just turn up on the day
