    Margaret was very knowledgeable however the class size was too large for her to spend sufficient time with each person. Therefore the maximum was not gained from the class. Venue was also not appropriate and noisy.

    Margaret was great, explained and demonstrated things slowly so I was able to pick it up really quickly. I also appreciated the focus on finding what was comfortable for you in terms of holding work/yarn, rather than forcing an uncomfortable setup
