We also welcome new members or home knitters with mobility issues (transport can be arranged if required). Our present project is knitting poppies to remember the fallen and to acknowledge our village veterans,so we can decorate the local soldier monument on Remembrance Sunday. Recent beneficiaries of our knitting have been baby clothes for the prem-babies of Ukraine and also Singleton and Glangwili hospitals, Women’s Aid Carmarthen,and Cwmgors and Brynamman Churches’ Plant Dewi charity. The only thing we ask is to bring along your own wool.
