*MissAdventure, they’ll be going via Knit for Nowt to some children’s therapist who’s been languishing on the waiting list. Thank you everybody for kind words!
I did go to a knitting group for a while, Whiff - the venue was in a very nice pub! - but nearly all the others (surprisingly enough) were much younger than me, so I had very little in common with them. I always felt a bit out of it, and stopped going after a couple of months. I’m quite happy knitting on my own!
Just need to finish the ‘professionals’ set before posting them all off - only half a policeman and a judge to go.
I won’t be making any more Mogs though - the pattern includes embroidered claws as well as whiskers, and embroidery is NOT my strong point, so after two lots of whiskers, I couldn’t face 4 sets of claws! I doubt the children will notice or care, though - at least I hope not!
