We're not sure when and we can't be sure who started it, but somewhere along the line, knitting has become the quirky girl's pastime du jour. As well as the occasional hip indie girl you see knitting on the train, there's a pack of crafty stars getting in on the needle action too, including Julia Roberts, Cameron Diaz and Madonna. If you're feeling out of the loop, then we’re happy to show you how.

Keep your new-found skills topped up at home using your take away kit of knitting needles, yarn and a 'how to' guide.

About This Class:
You may recognise this type of embroidery from your Grandma's home in the 60s, but now it is back! Well, actually it never really left. Bargello is a truly unique form of embroidery as there are both specific stitches and patterns required to make Bargello, Bargello.
During the class you will be introduced to the typical 'Vertical' stitch used throughout all Bargello, and then you'll get your head around the geometric patterns which are also characteristic of Bargello. You'll be stitching in no time, either one of our patterns or your own design, as our tutor is on hand to teach you how to use this unique form of embroidery to design your own unique pattern. Bargello can be used on normal fabric-like needlepoint fabric but we're using plastic canvas so that you can turn your Bargello design into a coaster! Or you can sew them up to create a pencil holder, plant pot, tissue box cover even.
