World Wide Knit in Public Day : Knitting & Crochet Guild - South West Regional Day hosted by the Bath branch

  • Salvation Army Green Park Road Bath, England BA1 1XE United Kingdom (map)

Join The Knitting & Crochet Guild for the first South West Regional Day here in Bath! Indulge in a day of knitting and crochet talks and workshops, art and research.

The Bath branch are holding a Regional Day on World Wide Knit in Public Day!

The programme currently includes:

  • a shawl edging talk by designer Emma Vining

  • a participatory group project with textile artist Lou Baker

  • an introduction to double knitting (where you’ll make a phone or tablet cover) with Clare Griffel

  • a granny square workshop with Armelle Lovegrove

  • a knitting surgery hosted by designer Mary Henderson

  • a talk from PhD researcher Alice-Marie Archer on the use of knitted structures in hydroponics

  • drop in learn to knit or crochet sessions for beginners

  • a craft swap and sell, where you can leave materials, tools and books you know you’ll never use but don’t have the heart to throw away (offered either free to a good home or for a set price). Any items left at the end of the day must be taken away by the original owner.

There will also be a small exhibition of members' work and a raffle (prizes include signed copies of books by Emma Vining and Betsan Corkhill, kindly donated by Emma and Betsan).
