Description
Welcome to Bristol University Knitting and Crochet Society!
We're a place for everyone from experienced knitters and crocheters to total novices to meet and chat in a friendly and relaxed setting. Share hints and tips, get inspired for your next project or take up a new skill. Total beginners are more than welcome and our committee is ready and raring to teach you all the basics!
There are two membership options. One for £2 for people who have their own needles and wool, or alternatively one for £6, which includes a welcome pack containing your choice of needles/hook, a ball of yarn, and some instructions and a pattern to get you started!
We organise meetings once a week, our "knit and natter" sessions, where all members are welcome to bring along whatever project they're working on. Occasionally we will also organise to all work on one project, for example, when the society worked together to make hats for the homeless in collaboration with bristolunihomelessness charity!
We also have a fun and exciting social scene, and all members are welcome to attend functions and events. From regular socials to our Christmas formal, there are plenty of opportunities to socialise and hang out, and there's something for everyone!
For the upcoming semester our meetings are scheduled for Tuesday 6pm-8pm CALDS Seminar 4.76 (Richmond Building). Take the stairs or the lift from the north side of the building, by the Balloon Bar.
