Due to some personal circumstances, I was forced to leave my knitting group. Not to worry, I started my own s n n at another coffee house. This time, I have made it clear that it is about knitting about talking, and not gossiping-the very thing that caused me to leave my old knitting group.
I have made it clear that my group will be democratic-those that want to go on field trips can, and those that can't won't. I know that money is tight for everyone right now, so I figured by making field trips something that members don't feel obligated to go on, but something that is optional, it will make it better for everyone.
