You’ll start by learning how to choose the right yarns and needles, along with understanding the importance of tension in your work.

Throughout the session, we’ll share helpful tips to avoid common pitfalls and keep your stitches even, so you can build confidence and enjoy your knitting journey.
By the end of the workshop, you’ll have knitted a small dishcloth and gained the confidence to move on to scarves, hats, or whatever strikes your fancy.
This session is perfect for absolute beginners with no prior experience, as well as for those returning to knitting after a long break. It’s designed for anyone who wants to learn in a friendly, patient environment where personal attention is possible, thanks to the small class size. The age range is 15 and up, and all yarn and knitting needles are provided for you to take home. If you’d like, you can bring a notebook and pen to jot down notes, but that’s entirely optional.

Book Launch: Tide of War
2025-12-05 19:30 - 21:00 | Arthall Gozo, 8, triq Agius de Soldanis, Victoria, VCT 1265, Malta
As war looms in the Persian Gulf, duty, honour, and humanity are tested in the harsh light of the desert. November 1990. Coalition forces gather in Saudi Arabia on the eve of Desert Storm. Amid the tension and uncertainty, a small covert team is assembled for a mission that could alter the course of history. As Captain Dillon Bombi prepares a newly formed unit for a mission deep into hostile territory, he faces questions as never before—about his orders, his team, and his own conscience. Sergeant Luke Shoalwater, battle-tested and fiercely loyal, is the only one Dillon knows he can trust. Miriam, a civilian medic thrust into the chaos of covert war, must confront her past and the risks of compassion. And Sergeant Mo al-Asadi, a Royal Marine, must weigh the cost—not only to himself, but to his family.
Authentic, relentless, and deeply human, Tide of War explores the unseen battles soldiers fight within themselves when duty and morality collide—and when the greatest threat may come from within.
Andy Young will be at the gallery to present his book, followed by a book signing. He is a retired U.S. Army officer currently living in Malta. He is a life member of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, the Reserve Organization of America, and is a member of Rotary International.
