Knitting & Stitching Show 2008
October 17 2008 – thisisknit
It's that time again!
We will be exhibiting at the Knitting & Stitching Show again this year - and we're going to make it bigger and better than ever :)
First off we will be taking a BIG stand. So big they named it twice... because in some of the Literature it is called Stand G10 and in other publications it is Stand G11.
Then on the Friday of the show we will be joined by Louisa Harding and on the Saturday we will be enjoying the company of Debbie Bliss. Both designers will be signing books, showing off some of their beautiful designs (with knit up samples on hand) and generally getting involved in all the knitterly shenanigans.
If you would like a little more dedicated time with the designers then why not come along to the 11am seminar which will be running on Friday with Louisa and on Saturday with Debbie? Each seminar will involve a talk from the designer on their experiences in the yarn industry, the inspiration for their patterns and how they choose their yarns. They will then answer some of your questions (more on that soon) and finally you will have a chance to try on garments, have a chat & get your pattern books signed.
There will, of course, be plenty of yarn, plenty of patterns and tonnes of Injabulo buttons, together with special offers and new products. So I think you can agree it is a great line up - we're really looking to seeing you all there! :)
Please note: The shop in Blackrock will be closed for the week of the Knitting & Stitching show but the Powerscourt shop will remain open at the ususal times. Apologies for any inconvenience caused.

where is the show and when?
I wonder.
I am a knitter but I’ve never been to any kind of knitting show. What exactly is going on there? Is it just people displaying their stuff and selling it?
Thanks for any answer.
