Craftshop na Méar




Mairead Sharry is spinning by the range in Craftshop na Méar at No. 53 Church St. Listowel. Namir Karim of Scribes is opening a craft shop just in time for Christmas. Knitwits will be selling their wares there and spinning demonstrations, knitting classes etc are planned.
Our first job was to make a St. Bridget's Cross to pray a blessing on the venture

Kniwits joined in a good old sing song around the wheel and by the range;
