Stirling Knit 'n' Natter - September 2024

Last chance to join us at the Scottish Yarn Festival!

A short newsletter this month to remind you that we're going to the Scottish Yarn Festival on Saturday 7 September and Glasgow School of Yarn on Saturday 19 October so you'll need to act soon if you want to come with us.

At the time of writing, tickets are still available for both the Scottish Yarn Festival and Glasgow School of Yarn but Scottish Yarn Festival tickets will be removed from sale at 10am on 2 September so act quickly if you don't have yours yet. See below for more details. Please RSVP on Meetup if you are planning to come with us and make sure that you buy your tickets from the organisers in good time since these events may sell out and there's no guarantee that tickets will be available on the door.

Happy crafting!

Yarn festival details

​Scottish Yarn Festival: 7 September, Errol Showground, Perthshire. A change of venue this year means that the festival is now only on the Saturday (7th) and not also the Sunday, as previously announced. We only have limited spaces available for car sharing from Stirling so, if I haven't already spoken to you to make arrangements, you will likely need to make your own way to the event. The festival organisers have arranged shuttle buses from Perth and Edinburgh and tickets for those are available from the event website, along with entry tickets. RSVP on Meetup if you're planning to join us there. We're aiming to leave Stirling around 10 and meet at the venue around 11.

​Glasgow School of Yarn: 18-20 October, Trades Hall, Glasgow and we're going on Saturday 19 October. Tickets are now on sale and I recommend buying a standard ticket for the Saturday unless you want the goodie bag that comes with the deluxe ticket. The intention is that we'll get the train from Stirling to Glasgow Queen Street, with meeting points at Stirling, Queen Street and the venue, as needed. Times tbc closer to the date but we're likely to be at the venue shortly after 11. RSVP on Meetup if you're interested in coming with us and remember to buy your ticket!
