On Sunday I enjoyed my annual day out at The Knitting & Stitching Show London. I try and go every year. Not only do I love fabric shopping but I also find Ally Pally a beautiful venue – and just down the road from where I used to live – happy memories.
This year I went with a school mum friend and it was a totally different experience but still a lot of fun. If you’ve never been before then The Knitting & Stitching Show London took place between 11th-15th October at Alexandra Palace. If you love crafting then it’s a brilliant day out with Learning Curve Workshops, The Dressmaking Studio, hundreds of exhibitors and textile galleries. We didn’t book on any workshops which I’m glad about because we spent *all* day walking around and enjoying the different stalls.
I find it really hard to get to any fabric shops so it feels like The Knitting & Stitching Show is one of my only opportunities to buy fabric. Fortunately I don’t have too many projects on the go at the moment but that didn’t stop me from making some purchases! I bought a gorgeous monochrome bundle from Higgs & Higgs, some fab character ribbons for my kids, felted acorns and a brilliant decorative wreath which I can’t wait to fill.
I received press tickets but you know I would have gone anyway, I’ve been for the past few years and love it. There are plenty of places to eat and drink and it’s a huge venue so although it’s busy, there are plenty of places to go to escape the crowds.
Win a goody bag from The Knitting & Stitching Show London
This year I was given a goody bag along with my press ticket which I thought I would offer as a giveaway (pictured below). My prize bundle includes a cotton tote bag which says “Yarn Goddess”, a blue tshirt (size large) which states “A stitch a day keeps the doctor away”, a pair of scissors in a case and a bundle of 4 x Autumn fabrics from Timeless Treasures.
To enter my giveaway you must answer the question via the Rafflecopter widget below, there are some bonus entries too. The giveaway is open to those with a UK postal address only and ends on 29th October. The winners’ name will appear on this post. Good luck!
