Every second Wednesday , from 10am ‘ til Noon , a group of knitters meet at the Hay Library to share their craft and have a cuppa and a bit of a natter . Squares are knitted and then sewn into blankets and wraps and donated to the hospital , Haydays and families in need .
Excess blankets , wraps and toys are sold and money donated to local causes . Tiny clothes are donated to hospitals for premature babies and ‘ babies born sleeping ’.
Experienced knitters and learners are encouraged to come along for morning tea and join the circle .
The Hay Library has a range of knitting books from beginner to advanced .
