Still Waters Posted August 17, 2013 #1 Share Posted August 17, 2013 A knitting group that creates replica anatomical parts for trainee NHS midwives has claimed they are no longer allowed to meet at a library because its needles are ‘dangerous’ and its members are ‘too noisy’. http://www.telegraph...us-needles.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eldorado Posted August 17, 2013 #2 Share Posted August 17, 2013 Yep... knitting groups are forever in the news with all the trouble they cause. Well done, that library boss! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rashore Posted August 17, 2013 #3 Share Posted August 17, 2013 I dunno.. I've been in stich n b..... groups. If that group is anything like my friends, there for sure is a lot of noise. And just because we stab each other once in a while, that does not mean we are a danger to anyone else. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of you guys could be a serial needler. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skep B Posted August 18, 2013 #6 Share Posted August 18, 2013 I would assume also, they're taking up a lot of space, not using the library as an actual library Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Wearer of Hats Posted August 18, 2013 #7 Share Posted August 18, 2013 I would assume also, they're taking up a lot of space, not using the library as an actual library If the library in question is anything like my local library, they'd be in a room specifically set up for groups to meet in. Or the library would have three people and a homeless man in it on average. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eldorado Posted August 18, 2013 #8 Share Posted August 18, 2013 (edited) If the library in question is anything like my local library, they'd be in a room specifically set up for groups to meet in. Or the library would have three people and a homeless man in it on average. Our library used to be like that until they got themselves half a dozen computers. Now, it's full of kids who have been thrown off their home computers by their parents and told to go out and play. lol (I was usually the homeless guy) Edited August 18, 2013 by Eldorado Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simbi Laveau Posted August 20, 2013 #10 Share Posted August 20, 2013 (edited) Fail. My library hosts hula dancing, jewelry making, children's crafts days. Separate rooms, but the hula dancing was in the main room itself. My library rocks Edited August 20, 2013 by Simbi Laveau 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brlesq1 Posted August 21, 2013 #11 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Doesn't the library have conference rooms the group could use? And why, all of a sudden, are knitting needles such a danger (not saying they weren't before)? Sounds like someone just didn't want them there anymore.
