Woven in Kirklees

Woven in Kirklees is a celebration of innovation in textiles which runs from the 5th - 27th June 2021.

This year’s programme starts with the Big Rainbow Knit which will see Huddersfield Train Station yarn bombed with a spectacular, woollen rainbow coloured installation created by our extensive network of knitters. There will also be a range of community and family events taking place throughout the festival as well as talks, special exhibitions, workshops, soundscapes, open studios and walks.

The festival ends on Saturday 26th and Sunday 27th June, with a celebration of two long term projects, The Big Rainbow Knit and Growing Colour Together, where participants have knitted thousands of squares for the yarn bomb installations and explored the techniques and processes involved in natural dyeing and how they can be applied to textile art and making.
