We had a delightful time on Debbie Abrahams’ knitting course last week, with lots of fun and laughter – and creativity.
Above are some of our participants gathered behind their colourful creations, principally a beaded bag project designed specifically by Debbie for the week.
So much fun was had by all that five of them are already booked in for our knitting courses next year. Why not come and join them and enjoy inspiring tuition, warm hospitality, beautiful settings, delicious food and wine and, of course, the convivial company of like-minded people.
We have no more knitting courses this year, but already taking bookings for 2023. And here’s an added bonus: if you book now, you can enjoy a 2023 knitting course at 2022 prices. Come and join us: you’ll love it. You can find out more by going to our Watermill website 2023 Preview Page, by clicking here.
Here are the two knitting holidays we have organised so far
6 – 13 May 2023
Georgia Farrell
Knitting and La Bella Vitall
Georgia Farrell is a British designer, with a passion for creating architecturally inspired design for hand knitting and beyond. Georgia combines a methodical approach to visual research with a more organic approach to creative exploration, and she loves to share the stories and concepts behind each of her designs. With a background in textiles, Georgia skilfully translates her passion for architectural details into textured knitted fabrics. From there she crafts and builds collections of accessories, garments and homewares, to be knitted, worn and enjoyed.
For her week at the Watermill, Georgia has created a specially designed sampler style project to take you through some of the different techniques and stitches she uses to create her architecturally inspired textured patterns, giving you a real insight into the way she works. You will also spend time getting creative with architectural inspiration and collage, before translating your creations into knitting by combining colour and texture.
*Book before 1 September 2022 to come on this 2023 course at 2022 prices.
15 – 22 July 2023
