Arm Knitting Workshops & Craft Events in Hull & East Yorkshire

Want a night out that’s actually different? One where you can laugh, relax, and go home with something you’ve made with your own hands?
Hull Knits runs friendly, feel-good arm knitting workshops and chunky knitting events across Hull and East Yorkshire. You’ll learn a simple technique using your arms (not needles) and chunky yarn, then create a finished item to take home the same day.
These workshops are perfect for friendship groups, gifts, and anyone who wants a little break from the everyday.

What happens at a Hull Knits workshop or event?

It’s simple, relaxed, and designed to feel easy — even if you’ve never knitted before. You can expect:
A warm welcome and a calm, friendly vibe
Step-by-step guidance from start to finish
All yarn and materials included
Help at every stage (no rushing, no pressure)
A finished item you’ll be proud to take home
Most people are amazed how quickly it comes together. You’ll be sat there thinking, “Hang on… I made this?!”

Where are workshops held?

Hull Knits workshops pop up in lovely local venues such as pubs, cafés, community hubs, village halls and event spaces. They’re hosted across Hull, East Yorkshire and North Lincolnshire, so you can often find one near you. And because they’re held in venues, you can make a proper evening of it — including a drink, a chat, and something creative to take home.

Who are these workshops for?

If you’re thinking, “I’m not creative” or “I’m rubbish at knitting”, you’re exactly the kind of person these workshops are made for.
Workshops are ideal if you:
want a fun night out that isn’t the usual thing
miss crafting but want something easier than traditional knitting
struggle with needles due to arthritis or sore hands
want a gift idea that feels thoughtful and different
want to do something relaxing with friends
You don’t need any experience. You just need to turn up and give it a go.

Regular events and special dates

Events run regularly across the region, with new dates added often. Some events sell out quickly (especially around seasonal times), so it’s worth checking back or booking as soon as you spot one you like.
