I’m recovering from my first 2 sessions in my new job & a 3 hour felt workshop. I had great fun & from the noise the 14 participants made I think they enjoyed it too. I have signed up to help raise money for the Martlets hospice in Hove, I will be knitting squares for sponsorship. There is a bus stop on the seafront in Brighton opposite the Old Ship hotel that has been covered in knitting too. check it out in the Argus here http://www.theargus.co.uk/news/quirkies/8799970.Brighton_bus_stop_given_woolly_makeover/
Finally after almost a year of being unemployed I had a choice of 2 jobs. Tough decision but I am now employed to take exercise classes in nursing homes around Sussex. Hopefully it will keep me fit too.
I will still be running workshops (in my free time) the first of which is next Wed in Isfield. I will be able to keep my etsy shop stocked and have a little time to complete an NVQ in customer services.
I am running a knitting workshop in March at Furniture Now in Lewes as part of the Knit 1 Pass It On campaign.This is a new national campaign to encourage knitters to pass on their skills to at least one other person.
