This page coincides with the current knitting revival, which sees the
craft booming in popularity and even experiencing celebrity status with
many of Hollywood's superstars, both male and female, turning to
knitting needles in their spare time. Hailed as the new yoga, knitting
is perfect to combat stressful urban lifestyles and helps us to return
to simplicity.

Rugby Art Gallery and Museum
The third major survey of British contemporary artists takes place
every four years and was launched in March this year. It explores the
shifting practices of artists who work with and around textiles, plus
it presents the medium in a new and astonishing light. This fresh and
provocative event showcases the work of established artists alongside
that of newcomers.
From the arresting and innovative use of materials to artworks that
challenge the very notion of what a textile actually is, the show will
entertain and evoke audiences of all ages. Phone 01788 533 201 or email
rugbyartgallery& to find out more.
