Volunteering at the Knitting and Stitching Show

Back - just – in an autumn routine. We're once again off to the Knitting and Stitching Show at Alexandra Palace (having been kindly offered the space by Creative Exhibitions).

We're just putting together a team of about eight volunteers to help with the stand over the course of the show (6th October = set up, 7-10 October = show). Last year everyone had fun, I think. This year we’ll be revealing the winners of the latest British Sari Story exhibition at the stand as well as one or two other exciting elements.

So – please email me know if you'd like to be part of the team at info@bridging-arts.com. I’d be delighted to hear from you as soon as possible (have four names on the list already). Last year, this did prove pretty popular.

The final day of the Knitting and Stitching Show

The final day of the Knitting and Stitching Show, Alexandra Palace. The organisers say attendance has topped 50,000 for the first time. A key audience for Stitch Wandsworth.

And .... Amanda Beasley helps with taking down the show - so much quicker than the set up.
Katrina Williams brings huge cloth bags she's designed herself to store everything in.
