The First Post

Hello and Welcome!

This blog is going to be all about Craft and Natter in Beckermet.  This is a craft group, we also natter, and we are in Beckermet.  We also drink lots of tea!

The group was set up by myself and my Mum, Angela.  The group is still in it's infancy.  We have met twice now.  The group is open to anyone of any age.  You can bring along any craft - as long as it's portable.  A lot of us knit or crochet.  Each meet is £2, this includes refreshments.  We are also registered with Craft Club.  We meet every third Thursday of the month.

The group has strong links with The WI - The Womens Institute, particularly Beckermet WI.  Don't let this put you off!  The WI does go beyond Jam and Jerusalem and The Calendar Girls!  Saying that though, I am partial to jam, tea & cake and Afternoon Teas!

The aim of this blog is to obviously promote the group, but also to show case what we are making and crafting, and to let you and the world, know who we are and what we are up to!

Beckermet is a village in West Cumbria, England.  I'm sure we will tell you about the village and surrounding area as time goes on!  I also have another blog - Carpedyems Microcosm, so you may know me from there or from Ravelry as CarpeDyem.

See you soon and Keep Crafting
