We have yet another course to offer you! This time, it's with Amy, our in-house knitting whiz! Here's what she says:

"Want to try knitted colour work but a jumper is too big a commitment when you’re new to colour work?

Let me help you get over any nerves by making a fun, quick (for knitted colour work) in the round cup cozy.

We’ll use the free pattern from Pacificknits as all her designs fit into the pattern. So you can choose your favourite style. We’ll be using DPNs (double pointed needles) and DK (double knit) yarn.

First lesson we’ll be getting our dotted paper and colouring pencils out to map out the design. Then we’ll cast on and begin the ribbing for the cozy.

Second lesson we’ll start our colour work knitting in the round. I’ll show you how to read your chart and carry floats.

Third lesson we’ll be finishing up the colour work and the top ribbing and casting off. If you don’t finish in this lesson and feel you need help to finish; you’re welcome to join our usual Tuesday morning knitting classes after this course has finished."

We have a lot happening at the moment, so keep your eye out for one post giving a round up of all our workshops and courses planned for between now and the start of the summer holidays.

We have a regular evening sewing class and a couple of spaces have opened up for the next batch of six lessons. If you'd like to learn how to make your own clothes, then this is the class for you! Julie is an excellent teacher and you'll have fun learning with the rest of the group. It's a very friendly and welcoming class, so you'll be made to feel at home in no time.

You'll need to bring your own sewing machine and the patterns and fabric aren't included in the cost, but we'll make sure there are plenty of tea, coffee and biscuits to keep you well fuelled. The patterns are available to purchase from The Hive / Julie and there's also a small selection of fabric to choose from if you don't already have some.

To book, just pop into The Hive on Commercial Street in Risca, or drop us a line via Messenger, text (07970 760910) or email ([email protected]).

Hi everyone. I'm sorry that the issue of our toilets keeps coming up, but here it is again. I'd be grateful if you could read the info in the images.

It's yet another unexpected bill and it's at our quietest time of year. Therefore, if you'd been planning to visit or book a class or workshop, this week would be a great time to do so. Don't forget, our sale runs until Saturday, 30th May!

We'll be needing the sales to help pay this latest bill and to cover the cost of drain rods, so I can (hopefully) keep the drains clear myself. I'd also like to order some more fabric, get the back yard looking tip top for our groups, buy some outdoor lighting, add to our shop signage, pay the electric bill, wages, internet, business rates, order more bag making kit......the list is endless!

Thanks for reading, and please be assured that this message isn't aimed at anyone or any group in particular. ###
