The UK’s leading textile art,

For knitters and stitchers keen
to learn new skills, the Learning Curve programme features hundreds of
workshops hosted by expert tutors. From complete beginners to intermediate and
advanced stitchers, there’s something for everyone. The Dressmaking Studio by
Brother is dedicated to making your own clothes, from an introduction to basic
dressmaking to a masterclass in classic couture finishes, and for visitors keen
to learn how to use an overlocker, join The Knitting & Stitching Show’s
Baby Lock Overlocker Classes. In the Creative Living Theatre, knitting and
sewing personalities will be demonstrating new techniques and hosting catwalk
shows. Last year’s line-up includes the lines of Steffi Stern from The Makerss,
Angela Pressley from The Sewing Club, and Clive Bruder from Boys Sew Too.
2024’s line-up will be announced shortly.
Acclaimed textile artists and
groups will be sharing new work in the Textile Galleries, with exhibitions by
Caitlin Hinshelwood, Cas Holmes, Harriet Riddell, Holly Searle and many more.
For crafters looking to top up
their supplies or do some early Christmas gift shopping, there are hundreds of
craft retailers under one roof, from big-name brands to hand-picked artisan
companies. The Yarn Village features specialist yarn suppliers, and for cross
stitch fans, Stitch Lane is the place to be for traditional and contemporary
designs by independent retailers.
The Knitting & Stitching
Show Prosecco Bar is the perfect place to celebrate, catch up with friends and
meet fellow stitchers, and there are plenty of food outlets throughout the show
to stop for a bite to eat. For visitors preferring to picnic, there are seated
areas to rest and recharge the batteries.
