Lichfield Machine Knitting Club is back again after a long break due to Covid 19!

It was lovely to see so many members return and to have a good natter. There were many garments for Show and Tell.

But not all had knitted during lockdown,

Lidia had planned a demonstration, to get the enthusiasm for knitting back to all.

Demonstration:

V Neck & Raglan Shaping with Cable

Show and Tell

Lidia Demonstrated knitting a V Neck with Cable - this method allows the knitter to put a design in whilst shaping the V-Neck

Lidia had been knitting Jumpers for Teddies during Lockdown

A variety of items were brought by members to our first meeting in over 18 months

From Cowel Necks, round and wrap arounds to elegant jackets even zips - everyone had been busy

Not All items were knitted on the machine!

This Playmat was crocheted in Four inch squares - the animals were hand knitted

One member had even invested in an Embroidery Machine, with some beautiful results

This Blanket was crocheted in squares then joined together
