 Come to the cafe for a relaxing Sunday afternoon...

Margot says:

What if I did some kind of making things thing at the Cafe on Sunday afternoon?  Possibly mostly knitting, random chat, stories and projects and tea and cake. I have some spare wool and needles if anyone wants to borrow some, possibly to learn to knit/crochet or come with your own projects.. Everything would remain light and Cafeish (light as in that special kind of summer afternoon sunlight drifting in through the window to hang in the air and light up grains of dust..) and there would be Earl Grey tea and possibly lemon drizzle cake.  Or not..  Possibly it would be much more rowdy.  But fun.

so possibly not so relaxing.. but maybe!  Come and find out!
