Season’s Greetings!
It’s been snowing lots here so I present a suitably winter-themed challenge: Mount Everest! (plus a hiker – clearly man and mountain are not to scale!)

If you are in the Westcliff-on-sea area on Saturday, September 25th, stop by the Village Green event in Chalkwell Park. Music, art, crafts and much more will take place in the park and Southend Fringe Festival will have a stall in the marketplace area where we will be promoting the 2011 festival and selling various handicrafts including jewellery, knitted and crocheted accessories, cards and much more! There will also be a box for you to post your suggestions for things to knit inside – results will appear on this blog!
