The Spring Knitting & Stitching Show

The Knitting & Stitching Show came to the Royal Highland Centre Edinburgh for the first time last year.

It was such a huge success that they are doing it all over again.

The definitive event for anyone with a passion for textile craft, The Spring Knitting & Stitching Show returns to the Royal Highland Centre from Thursday 27th to Sunday 30th April.

Happy crafters

Previous visitors have given The Knitting & Stitching Shows the thumbs-up on the organisers’ Facebook page, including these recent comments:

‘I found it to be a lovely balance between specialist supplies for the experienced and kit basics for those just giving it a go. It was very inspiring to see a selection of finished items from the expert crafters.’

‘This trip was a special treat for my eight year-old as she’s become very enthusiastic about sewing. She had a huge shopping list and was also keen on learning something new in a workshop. I’m delighted to report that her expectations were met!’

‘Just got home from the Edinburgh Knitting & Stitching Show, thoroughly enjoyed, plenty of wool, material stall. Great to go to a craft show where there were fewer stalls with ready-made and more for crafters.’

‘My mother and friends organised a minibus, for the Sunday. Everyone was greatly impressed with what was on offer, and we’re looking to bring a bigger bus with lots more people to next year WELL DONE!’
