Knitting/Crochet(10th/May - 10th/May)
Oasis Breffni Women's Shed will be knitting/crocheting lap blankets for North West Hospice patients. Oasis Breffni Women's Shed will commence this project on Friday 10th May from 11am - 1pm. Any ladies who enjoy knitting can come along on the 10th May. When the blankets are finished someone from North West Hospice will be presented with these blankets and hopefully bring some little bit of joy around their illness. We are asking that anyone who will be coming along to please register as we need to know how many needles, wool etc to buy. If you have your own that is even better. So please give us a call on 071 9622566.
