Arm Knitting Blanket Workshops
1 February, 17 September & 12 November | 11:00 - 13:15
Create a beautifully soft throw using nothing but your arms as needles. Perfect for beginners and seasoned knitters alike, this relaxing workshop is led by Paula from Cocoon & Me, who will guide you through each step. Using giant, vegan-friendly yarn, you’ll see your blanket grow quickly and leave with an on-trend piece you can proudly snuggle under.
Your finished blanket will measure approximately 95cm x 130cm, making it ideal as a cosy throw or a stylish addition to the end of your bed or sofa. Choose between a single colour or two-colour stripes.
Please book at least 5 days before the workshop to secure your preferred yarn colour (subject to availability), as Cocoon & Me will order materials in advance.
The price includes your tuition, all materials, and access to exclusive video tutorials. You’ll need bare forearms for arm-knitting, so please wear short sleeves or something you can easily roll up.
