Wonderful Wednesday at Iramoo

21/01/2026

It was a wonderful Wednesday at Iramoo Community Centre in Wyndham Vale as Star Weekly journalist Jaidyn Kennedy paid a visit to the Crafties group. Meeting every Wednesday for the past 21 years, the ladies put their knitting and crocheting skills to good use. Over spirited debates, items are made for each other and charitable causes. From beanies for babies in hospitals to balaclavas for soldiers in Afghanistan, people from all walks have benefited from the ladies sleight of hand. All are welcome to come and have a crack.
