Workshop
  • workshops and talks

Throughout the day we'll be offering a range of small workshops and talks from designers and knitters. Informal get-togethers with designers and teachers to pick up some new techniques or learn a trick or two. Already confirmed, Jane Sowerby (Victorian Lace Today) and Helene Magnusson (Icelandic Rose Patterns)....see the line-up here

Yarn
  • marketplace

Our marketplace will be the place to spend some of that hard-earned cash on a little bit more of what you fancy; yarns, needles, accessories, books and more from some well-known and not-so-well known names in knitting. As always I Knit will be encouraging independent yarn producers and small businesses to take part alongside the big boys...

  • entertainment

Djs, drinking and perhaps some dancing...a large area will be given over to the I Knit Lounge once again this year. Have a seat, get yourself a drink, some cake and knit back and relax for the afternoon. A roster of entertainment is being put together for your delight and delectation...

  • refreshments

We listened to feedback from last year's show and...yes, there will be cake and chocolate too! Plus much more in the on site café, catering for all the hungry knitters with sarnies and hot meals...
