Crewe Family Fun Day

This Saturday is the perfect opportunity to join in on the Jubilee Gardens Tree Cozy Project.
From 12 - 6pm this saturday (23rd July) ArtYarn and the Tree Cozy Project group will be on hand to teach you know to knit and crochet so that you can learn a new crafty skill and contribute to the project. If you can knit already you'll be invited to contribute to the project, and you could also offer your skills to the community by teaching a few skills yourself!

There will be plenty of materials to use, we'll have a range of patterns for you to look through and you'll be able to see some of the creative knitting and crochet thats already been made for the project.

See you there!
