The Spring Knitting and Stitching Show

Those in need of inspiration (or raw materials) for a new craft project should head down to this large-scale knitting and stitching fair. More than 200 exhibitors will be selling specialist craft supplies, patterns and books, as well as ready-made arts and crafts for those too impatient to fashion their own. The show also includes workshops on dressmaking, knitting and crochet, appearances from leading craft authors, a display curated by Contemporary Quilt, and the final of the National Fashion Textiles Competition – which is open to 16- to 19-year-olds.
