 Knitting Getaway Experience

What to Expect

Y2Knit Knitting Getaway Experiences are for those seeking more (5 days!) of all that makes the Knitting Getaway Weekend so wonderful--more knitting, more relaxing, more workshops and learning, and more time for activities and leisure.

October 27-31, at Heart of the Village Inn, Shelburne, VT

The Workshops

Expect fabulous workshops covering all kinds of embellishments, where participants create a project or a sampler booklet using techniques learned.

Starting on Wednesday with an introduction to the projects, workshops for the event include:

Buttons, Bands and Buttonholes
Crochet and I-cord
Bows and Florals
Special Cast Ons and Bind Offs
Glitz, Glitter and Beads
Button Making
Button Bracelets

In addition to the usual Y2Knit hospitality, look forward to yoga sessions, optional massage, great food and lots of fun!

While the Experience at Heart of the Village Inn does allow some time for exploring historic Shelburne, you may want to extend your stay to visit local attractions more extensively.
