I helped start a local knitting group a couple of years ago and now there's a regular bunch of us who all get on like a house on fire and these lovely ladies have become really good friends - in fact Rachel who commented above me is one of those, although we met earlier through a scrapbooking group (hi Rachel!) xxxNataliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16491298736945112452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2706262865346625488.post-47623693833722570652011-08-24T22:25:14.203+02:002011-08-24T22:25:14.203+02:00Oh how I wish you lived in the Toledo area.
