Unwind Fibrecraft Retreat is a private weekend-long event for fibre-crafters. Community is the strongest focus, providing an opportunity to get together with people similarly inspired by knitting, spinning, crochet, and other fibre crafts, to celebrate our shared passion with classes, talks, shopping and swapping, gatherings and practice.
Unwind is entirely private, with all parts only available to registrants. Registrants get a tote bag, access to classes and talks, and various competitions, prizes and gifts. And we are excited to say that in 2026 our very own Ruth will be presenting a talk about the origins of the granny square, and our role in discovering it.
