Hi Anne
I sent a letter you printed in the February magazine asking if any of your readers came from the Dewsbury area of West Yorkshire. June got in touch and I replied to her letter in late November 09. She was returning to machine knitting after about 20 years and when she opened her Brother knitting machine 850 (I think), it was a bit rusty so she wanted help to clean it.

I contacted her because she lived in Kirkheaton, Huddersfield which is very close to me at Thornhill, Dewsbury. We emailed each other constantly for about a week but then my computer ‘threw a wobbly’ and lost all my emails and addresses. June had knitted matching outfits for her two daughters when they were young (same as me) and she now wanted to knit for her grandchildren. I’d be so pleased if you could ask her to e-mail me again.

Thanks and all the best
Susan Johnson
