Thursday, Sept. 24 through Saturday, Sept. 26
We are so excited about our inaugural Knit Camp virtual retreat! While this exclusive retreat is for members of our Knit Camp community, we’ve saved a few special spots for our friends who may not have joined Knit Camp yet but are eager to see what it’s all about!
While it’s not easy to get away to The Coast right now, we’ll be bringing The Oregon Coast to you in this 2+ day virtual (online) event. Not sure if you can attend live? All events and classes will be recorded so you can catch the ones you miss.
If you miss having the chance to connect with other knitters, need inspiration to brighten your life, love learning and laughing with friends, and get excited when you see a special mail delivery filled with yarn-y goodness on your doorstep, this retreat is for you!
You will find all the juicy details about the workshops below.
We’ll laugh, learn and knit together in our cozy virtual space, and we’ll pretend we have our toes in the sand while we do it!

Join us for the full Knit Camp at the Coast VIP Retreat experience! There will be virtual classes, an exclusive retreat pattern, recipes, cocktail hour, and special yarn-y discounts in our very own (tiny) retreat marketplace. PLUS VIPs will receive exclusive retreat swag (including a custom dyed skein of yarn) delivered right to your door before the retreat begins.
All activities will be recorded, so you can join us live or catch the replay later when you have time (or both!). Did we mention you’ll get an exclusive swag box filled with swagtastic Knit Camp at The Coast goodies (including a skein of custom yarn from Sew Happy Jane)???
