BIG KNIT NIGHT coming up

Our ARTy fARTy pARTy is approaching fast. My friend Fiona got the idea from Jen over on Painted Fish Studio in the USA. She and her friends get together every so often and over a few bottles of wine they have a crafting pARTy. We decided to get a group of friends together and give it a try. I went to the Knitting and Stitching Show last October and spotted Giant knitting needles but at the cost of £20 -£40 depending on how gigantic you wanted them we thought them a little pricey. So some of us have decided to have a go at making our own from broom handles or sticks whatever was available. Mine still look like sharpened broom handles but Fiona at Tizduster has really gone to town and created two sets of beautiful needles, she has used polymer clay to make multi coloured ends, can't wait to see what she'll be knitting.
