Knit for Purpose!  At the Village Community Market, Saturday 8 June from 9am to 11.30am.  Peggy squares knitted into blankets will be donated to vulnerable communities via Volunteering Canterbury.

Volunteering Canterbury are collecting knitted (or crocheted) peggy squares, with the aim of providing blankets to those in need in our community (through local organisations).  The link below will take you to the information page, which has links to a knitting pattern, a ’how to knit’ video, and a how to crochet’ video.

https://volcan.org.nz/news/knit-for-purpose

(Size 8 -4mm- needles, use 8ply DK wool if possible please, any colour.  Cast on 30 stitches, work 60 rows garter stitch (knit every row) or until your work measures 14.5cm.  Cast off.)  If you have any squares to donate, simply leave them at either the Papanui or Bryndwr Village offices, and we will arrange delivery to Community House. (V.Canterbury need the squares in to them by 8 June for this campaign).

The time-line for this year’s campaign is very short, but if this is something you would enjoy doing at your leisure, we would love to collect peggy squares during the year, to enable a large contribution for next winter.

They are happy for squares to be made in wool, cotton, acrylic or a mix, but ask that you indicate which it is.  This will ensure that blankets destined for newborns and neonates, are 100% wool.

May/June birthdays will be celebrated with a potluck tea on Friday, 14 June at 6pm. If you would like to join us, please RSVP to Catherine or Don.

 

The Village Market Each first Saturday of the month in our Bryndwr building, we run a pop-up market.     It continues to be a place where people gather to buy, catch up, donate or just hang out together. There is a group who meet to knit & chat and there’s great coffee available.

The market has a focus of good quality second-hand household goods, toys, books; and from time-to-time, baking, jams, plants and our existing pre-loved clothing shop.

As with our clothing shop, we rely on the community to donate goods. Please do let us know if you’re having a clean out, downsizing or simply having a change around, we are happy to pick up & collect! Please contact the Bryndwr Office at 351 6664 for more information.

This month the Market will be held Saturday June 8th

THURSDAY HOUR! 5-6pm, June 6th @ Bryndwr.

All Welcome!  Byo drink.  Nibbles provided.  Any questions, call Mitch and Barb.
