展会报告(Show Reports):
Established in 1987 The Knitting & Stitching Show was the original craft fair, the idea was simple to create a place where like-minded crafters could meet up, discuss ideas, learn new skills and shop for their annual craft supplies.
30 years on and we now run The Knitting & Stitching Shows throughout the UK, with shows in London’s iconic Alexandra Palace and Harrogate. Each show has grown in size and substance. The Knitting & Stitching Show at Alexandra Palace remains our flagship show and welcomes 30,000 crafters every October.
The Knitting & Stitching Shows offer a craft experience like no other. The opportunities to learn new skills are vast; the show features a workshop program with hundreds of classes taught by leading textile tutors which includes Overlocking Classes, a Learning Curve Programme, a Dressmaking Studio catering for beginners and professionals plus The Creative Living Theatre showcasing daily demos.
Each year we strive to bring the very best textile artists to the show with our series of professionally curated textile galleries. Past galleries have included work from Jan Beaney and Jean LittleJohn, Kaffe Fassett and Diana Harrison.
Stock up your stash and discover a huge range of craft and textile supplies that will have you raring to start your next project! From yarn, fabric and beads, to sewing machines, patterns, haberdashery and kits – you’ll be spoilt for choice!
