After a two year break we are very pleased to be able to again offer our popular knitting holiday in France.

12th to 19th June 2022

LE VIEUX MONASTERE, CHARENTE MARITIME, SOUTH WEST FRANCE

A relaxing week of workshops, yarns, creativity, trips, fun and much more with Fiona Morris…

The programme for June 2022 is now available. This year Fiona will be covering ‘Twigg Stitch’, a variation of two-colour knit 1 purl 1 rib but NOT Brioche, and Reversible Cable patterns in the one day workshops, and Short Row Shaping and different methods of Casting-on and Casting -off in the half day workshops. Stella will be back with her pop up yarn shop and there will be trips out to local places of interest.

The holiday takes place in the beautiful retreat of Le Vieux Monastere, a monastery dating back to the 12th century. Set in the sunny Charente Maritime between La Rochelle and Cognac this is a perfect setting for promoting creativity and a sense of well being. The workshops form part of an inclusive programme which provides a complete and relaxing holiday experience.
