Happening APRIL 5-6, with a bonus class day April 7th
“Stitch Up Chicago was born from the idea of taking an online group offline to share fiber love. That is what every single Stitch Up is about: creating safe spaces and celebrating our common love of fiber. We had to take a break because of the pandemic and some personal life challenges, but it is time… so here we are planning our SIXTH Annual event and humbled by how our community has grown.”
I have been to a couple of Stitch Up Chicagos now, and I’m so excited to be going back for 2024! It’s a unique retreat – and you don’t have to know how to knit or crochet to join in. It’s all about learning and building community and sharing our love of yarn crafting.
But of course, it’s not JUST hanging out…
Together we’ll do a yarn tasting, make some fabulous patterns, and eat delicious food! So much is included, and new details are being released every week. All you have to do is show up – you don’t even have to bring yarn or notions! At Stitch Up Chicago, all event materials are provided by their generous sponsors. Kits, yarn, hooks – they’ll have it all waiting for you, and it’s all included!
And there are a few pros there to do the teaching and hosting and whatnot, including me – be sure to bring your questions! Here are the hosts for Stitch Up Chicago 2024!
Patty Lyons
Natalie Thomas (Detroit Knots)
Tamara Kelly (of Moogly)
Lauren McElroy (Mother of Purl)
