Come meet and mingle with other knitting enthusiasts during a series of workshops led by local and visiting instructors. Nestled in a cozy, ocean-side resort on the beautiful west coast, you will have the chance to try new stitch and grafting techniques, strengthen your needle felting skills, explore the creation process of spun yarn, and try your hand at weaving using locally-sourced cedar. Stretch your your legs and learn about coastal rainforests while taking in spectacular views from the Wild Pacific Trail, enjoy a west coast feast at Heartwood Kitchen, and explore products from local vendors.
