The South West's largest yarn festival is back at Newton Abbot Racecourse in South Devon

Stitch Fest launched in November 2016 in Totnes Civic Hall with a hugely successful festival that drew people from all over the UK. Its second, third and fourth years were even better with a fabulous new venue in the Grove School and more classes.

Stitch Fest 2021 and now 2022 have taken another new exciting growth step with the show moving to the fantastic venue at Newton Abbot Racecourse where it is all under one roof and as ever, showcasing some of the best independent makers, dyers, spinners and designers in the UK yarn industry along with fabulous workshop and demonstration timetables.
