This is a fun activity in Brighton and Hove, Brighton
Join us for this engaging arm knitting workshop where you'll learn how to create your own cosy chunky-knit blanket. In just one session, you'll master the basics of arm knitting whilst crafting a beautiful home accessory that's both practical and stylish.
Our Arm Knit Blanket workshop is also available for corporate/team building events & private parties.
Perfect for complete beginners and experienced knitters alike, this hands-on activity is a wonderfully accessible way to discover a new craft technique. Your expert instructor Paula will guide you through each step, ensuring you feel confident and supported throughout the creative process.
You'll be working with supremely soft, vegan-friendly extreme chunky yarn that's a joy to handle. One of the most satisfying aspects of arm knitting is how quickly your project takes shape – you'll be amazed at how rapidly your blanket grows before your eyes.
We offer two blanket sizes - medium 2kg or small 1kg.
The medium finished piece measures approximately 95cm x 1.30cm, creating an ideal throw for cosying up on chilly evenings or adding a contemporary design element to your bedroom or living space. A small blanket is approximately 70cm x 100cm, so more of a lap blanket to keep you cosy.
You can personalise your creation by choosing either a single colour or opting for a striking two-tone striped design.
This rewarding workshop will leave you with not only a gorgeous handmade blanket but also the knowledge and confidence to continue exploring the craft of arm knitting at home.

"Such a brilliant workshop! My daughter-in-law and I created lovely blankets under the patience and guidance of Paula. We were not the quickest to understand at the beginning but once we got the hang of it we motored along and had great fun. Thank you Paula for your kind and gentle support. We would highly recommend the workshop especially at Pitfield Barn, such a fantastic location and on arrival a warm welcome from the owner. " Tracey G.
