A new craft group is being launched at Braithwaite.

The Braithwaite Village Crafters will meet in New Church Hall on the first and third Tuesday of each month (10am-noon), from March 3.

Anyone currently working on a craft project is welcome to take it along to swap ideas. Novices in need of help are also invited to attend.

The cost will be £2.50, including tea and coffee and biscuits.

The range of crafts covered includes patchwork, appliqué, weaving, knitting, crochet, embroidery, cross-stitch and card making.
