Crickleknitters

Our knitting group is buzzing with creativity and kindness! Whether you’re a seasoned knitter or just casting on for the first time, you’ll be joining a warm, friendly community that knits with purpose. Not only do we enjoy cups of tea, chatter and plenty of woolly inspiration — we knit for good causes all year round. One of our most cherished projects is creating tiny hats, blankets and comfort items for the St Mary’s Hospital NICU, supporting premature and vulnerable babies and their families when they need it most. From community charities to local outreach projects, our needles are always clicking for someone in need. Come along, get involved, and help us spread warmth, one stitch at a time!
