Friday night fashion show and party

Everyone holding a valid ticket for Friday 11th is invited to join us for the evening fashion parade and party in the main hall, from 6pm.

The show will feature a selection of knitwear from many of the designers and suppliers taking part in this year's event and the party is a chance to wind-dwon after a long day's work...or yarn shopping!

Our special Guests are Gaggle, a quoir of 22 gorgeous women.

Yarnmarket and more

As with previous years, our yarnmarket area will feature a mix of local shops, independent retailers, yarn producers and more.

From some well-known names to indie spinners and dyers at their first event, you'll find everything under one roof - from hand-dyed yarn to needles, crochet hooks, accessories, patterns and books, notions, kits and more...

Charity projects and exhibitions

Once again you'll be able to spend some of your time knitting and crocheting for a number of charity projects who will be taking part in the show. If you are running a charity project which involves knitting or crochet please get in touch to find out more about reserving a place at the show.

There will also be a number of exhibitors and artists showing off their work around the venue, and inviting you to get involved in a number of projects. More details to be confirmed.

Entertainment

We want the I Knit Weekender to be a place you can spend a few hours or a whole day! On the main stage, over the course of our two days, there will be presentations, fashion shows and more entertainment.

Details to be confirmed. Watch this space!
