Here at Crafty Students we take it upon ourselves to keep the Dublin population informed of all craft related events taking place in our rainy little city.
This weekend the Knitting and Stitching show is on in the RDS. It always makes for a fabulous day out. There are classes running throughout the day where for a mere 8 euro you can learn a whole new skill.
It's also a great place to pick up all kinds of crafty goods at a reasonable price. Often, you will be able to find things there that you won't find in Dublin craft shops as traders from all over the UK descend on the RDS to flog their wares.
There are also exhibitions of craft gracing the walls of the hall. It's fabulous to see what fellow crafters across the Emerald Isle are doing. You never know, maybe one day you'll see a Crafty Students exhibition having pride of place!
Even if you're new to knitting and crafting, the Knitting and Stitching show provides the perfect inspiration and place to pick up all that you need to get your knit on!
Here's a link to the website:
Enjoy!

Hi Nat and Brid, was just shutting down when your comment popped in - thank you. This blog looks great, will have to check it out when I'm more awake. Did you by any chance get a photo of you dressed as a BUNCH OF GRAPES? (I agree btw: it seems crazy that a country that produced all of Shakespeare's plays AND Monty Python ANd Grayson Perry, hasn't grasped the simple concept of trick or treat). If you have any shots please send them: jill@haybooks.com
ReplyDeletethanks - hope to hear from you again. xo
