Debbie Abrahams and I are very pleased to announce that we have once again been invited to tutor a workshop together at the beautiful Chateau St Julien de l'Ars, just outside Poitiers in association with Sue Culligan who now provides a range of workshops set in the countryside of France.
The workshop is designed to encourage guests to experiment with both knitting and crochet to create something for the home. It will be an exciting week of workshops held in an inspirational setting at the beautiful chateau.
For further details and to book a space email sueculligan@gmail.com (there are currently only 9 spaces left)
The workshop runs from the 16th - 22nd September 2012
Debbie and I will also be tutoring a whole range of exciting tours aimed at knitters and crocheters and the destinations currently include the Shetland Islands, Tuscany and Marrakesh. Debbie and I are really chuffed to have been invited to tutor these exciting tours which are arranged by travel company Arena Travel and have the added bonus of a holiday guide throughout.
The tours are aimed at knitters who wish to visit these amazing locations accompanied by like minded people with the added bonus of some knitting workshops within the itinerary. For more information take a look at the Arena Web site.
