Sew upholster knit in the company of others. What is The Stitch? Knitting West Norwood Together. October 12, 2016. Teresa and Charlotte (of FEAST) have asked if we would join in with the FEAST knitting project and, of course we said yes!

Charlotte has already started this at FEAST and it was huge success, especially at Tea and Talk! Stitch at WN Feast.
