About us
The Knitting and Stitching Show presents a unique formula of inspiration, learning and shopping, appealing to anyone with a love of creative crafts. The show is a celebration of textiles in every conceivable form - from traditional stitching techniques through to contemporary mixed media. Whether you enjoy practical crafts or you prefer experimental and decorative textiles, you'll find all the supplies, artwork and workshops you need at The Knitting and Stitching Shows.
Established over 20 years ago, The Knitting and Stitching Show has become the most important event in the craft calendar for passionate textile enthusiasts and professional artists. The shows bring a community of textile-lovers together and we’re very proud to present an ‘inclusive’ event, welcoming people of all ages and backgrounds, all levels of ability and various interests.
We know that card makers don’t always enjoy cross stitch and embroiderers don’t necessarily knit, but whatever your passion, we cater for it at The Knitting and Stitching Show. The Knitting and Stitching Show bring dressmaking, knitting, crochet, cross stitch, embroidery, felt-making, jewellery-making, dyeing, patchwork and quilting and many more crafts together under one roof.
Come along to any of our shows and see for yourself; you’ll leave feeling inspired and awe-struck with a new skill under your belt and some great new products to play with.
Does anybody know if there are any sewing machine shops in Leeds? I'm looking for a new one but want some demonstrations before I decide. Thanks in advance

If you can hang on until the end of November you could go to the Knitting and Stitching Show at Harrogate - all the big manufacturers will be there with a huge range of machines to try. I got a great deal on my machine there a couple of years ago! http://www.theknittingandstitchingshow.com/harrogate/
