About
This workshop is an opportunity for you to get involved in a collaboartive knitted art work celebrating feminism. We will be knitting tube covers for a wire frame that will form a knitted word. Each small piece of knitting will contribute to the finished art work that will be presented at The Whitworth as part of the official book launch on 6th July.
This is a free drop-in workshop suitible for people of all abilities, from experianced knitters to total beginners. The workshop leaders will be able to teach casting on and off, knit and pearl stitches, stocking stitch and knitting in the round.
The workshop will be led by artist and activist Helen Davies.
