Knitting offers opportunities for creativity and achievement. Knitting basics can be learned easily, but knitting offers enough complexity for a lifetime of interest as a hobby or a career. Duties included are providing help with those wishing to learn the form of knitting/crochet or tapestry. Making of tea and coffee, set up and clear away at end of day. The ability of our residents will be varied so we need a little imagination as to what can be knitted.
We would love to help our residents to enjoy some of their activities. A few have knitted in the past but now need a little help with patterns, casting on/off or just a little motivation by way of a new project. Others have created patchwork covers, clothing etc through sewing.
