2) No smoking, pets or alcohol.
3) Children under 11 years of age must be supervised at all times by someone over the age of 18 (i.e. an adult).

What members are saying

 A good friendly group that shares knitting ideas and life. 

Joan

 This is a nice group. Tt's nice to meet with people who have been knitting or crocheting for years and those who are starting out. There is no judgment either way. ...
