CROCHETERS and knitters are expected to flood the Market Place this weekend to celebrate World Wide Knit (and Crochet) in Public Day!
The ‘Big Yarn & Yap’ – organised by the Melksham business owner, who is known as ‘The Secret Crocheter’ – invites alal crocheters and knitters to meet in the Market Place on Saturday 11th June, from 10am to 3pm.
The Secret Crocheter says, “If you’re a crafter who enjoys a good old natter whilst crafting for an hour or two, please pop down to the Market Place during the day for my first Big Yarn & Yap! Just bring along your own chair (camping chairs are great), your current WIP (work in progress), a flask of tea and a few pennies to buy some cake.
“You’ll find me, The Secret Crocheter, in the Melksham Town Council gazebos, crocheting away and nibbling on some homemade cake.
“Although this is a free event, donations are very welcome on the day and all money will go to Young Melksham; a community youth organisation serving young people of all backgrounds.”
And that’s not all! On the day, The Secret Crocheter and her team of crafters are also making a big blanket for the young people who receive support from Young Melksham.
If you’d like to create a square for the blanket either on the day, or in the comfort of your own home, please get in touch with The Secret Crocheter by email: thesecretcrocheter@yahoo.com
