What a fantastic event this was towards the end of March! 20 people and 22 machines packed into the Chapel of the Framework Knitters Museum, for a day of learning and fun. Any more people and we wouldn't have been able to move, so perhaps my initial aim of 30 was a tad over-ambitious. It wasn't the machines really that took up the room, but the size of the tables that people brought with them.
Still, the day has set the "seed" for a weekend event elsewhere in the country - I don't think many of the people at Rudd had been to the Bournemouth event in 2005, so this is all new to them. One think=g to come out of discussion was how machine prices have shot up for the £400-500 price range to the £650-850 in just a couple of years.
