Knitter's Retreat Weekend

Winter Warmer - Fireside Knitter's Retreat Weekend - March 8-10, 2013


Tidewater Inn



What better way to enjoy a Winter weekend than to be at a knitters retreat at a comfy bed and breakfast inn.



Madison Wool



Dayna, owner of Madison Wool, and I have put one together for you for the weekend of March 8-10 with Shannon Okey, the "knitgrrl." She'll be teaching all about sweater design, and there will be time for you to share about your knitting passion too.

Arrive Friday afternoon early enough to visit Madison Wool to pick up supplies. Check in at our Tidewater Inn and enjoy a light dinner with your fellow knitters. Bring along a project that you're proud of for "show and tell" time as everyone gets to know each other after dinner.


Knitgrrl Studio

Start Saturday and Sunday mornings with a bountiful Tidewater Inn breakfast, and then it's class time with Shannon. Classes will be 6 to 8 hours each day, with breaks and lunch. After class spend time knitting by the fireplace or enjoying a glass of wine with some cheeses, fruit and nuts from our local cheese shop.  Venture out for Saturday dinner at one of Madison's fine restaurants. Come back to the inn for more time to knit, chat and relax.

The Winter Fireside Knitter's Retreat package includes two nights at our Tidewater Inn, (voted the Shoreline's Comfiest Bed and Breakfast 2007 - 2012), two bountiful breakfasts, two lunches, Friday night's dinner, anytime snacks, coffee, tea and soft drinks, and Saturday's pre-dinner wine and cheese reception, along with two full days of classes with Shannon Okey.
