I’m Steph, I write Craftchester. I am an enthusiastic crafter, although often lacking in expertise. I believe passion is as important as patterns and inspiration as vital as instructions.
I love knitting, crochet, sewing and making jewellery. I’d much rather craft something to wear, than something I’ll have to dust !
Currently I run a group called knitting/crochet/sewing group called Pins n Needles, we meet on Sundays at the Cornerhouse cafe, leave me a message to find out which Sunday we will be meeting. I am also working on setting up a new craft group which I will post about once things are a little more concrete.
I’d love to know what you think, so please feel free to comment

Hi Steph, I linked to your blog from stellamystar. I live in Altrincham and I am a keen crafter who is learning to knit. I would love to come to one of your groups if that is OK. When are you next meeting?
Thanks

Hi Steph,
Really excited by what you are doing! I’m really happy to see this happening in Manchester, as I have been looking to talk and make with some like minded crafty sorts.
When will you be next meeting up, as I would love to come along?
Thanks

Hello there
Steph and catherine and Sam, I’d love it if you might also be interested in Manchester Craft Mafia – see http://www.manchestercraftmafia.com – first event Sept 2nd and do sign up to our blog. Steph I think I have your email address somewhere so I want to email you just to say hello, I think there could be loads of ways we can hook up our two groups if you’re interested? Sally
