It was suggested that at future Members' meetings we do some 'train knitting' where someone starts to knit a small project, that would be suitable to go into a 'charity shoebox', then when ready, hand to the person sitting next to them to continue with the knitting.

Members were asked to bring any spare 4 or 4.5mm knitting needles (size 8 or 9 old size), and doubleknit or similar yarn they may have.

With that in mind, some suggested patterns have been emailed to members ready for the next Members meeting.
