Knitting Retreats?

We offer several "Lost In The Woods Knitting Retreats" each Fall and Winter.

Minnesota Fall and Winter Retreats

Ghost Ranch, New Mexico Winter Retreat

Every Fall and Winter, we offer several weekend knitting retreats in northern Minnesota, and every Winter we offer two week-long retreats in northern New Mexico.  Please remember to add this page to your bookmarks or favorites and come back to check for updates.  You may also visit our contact page to sign up to be on our mailing list and our email group so we can notify you as soon as we have any shop or retreat news to share.

We have been doing knitting retreats (or knitting camps as some people call them) in northern Minnesota since 1979.  We started with one fall retreat each year, then added a second fall retreat and then a third, and also added a winter retreat as the experience caught on.  Our first week-long knitting retreat at Ghost Ranch in New Mexico happened in February of 2001.  We had such a wonderful time there that we expanded to two week-long retreats at Ghost Ranch in March 2002.  Some women have commented that being there was "a life changing experience" for them. We plan to return to Ghost Ranch again in March 2005, but we'll only do one retreat there this time.

At these retreats, a couple dozen women (men are welcome too!) gather to knit, learn, share, experiment and enjoy one another's company, encouragement and support.  Show and tell and sharing our stories is always part of the experience.  And we always have a massage therapist available for half-hour or full-hour massages! We bring a lot of yarn, needles, buttons, patterns and other stuff from the shop out to our weekend retreats near Ely, and being at the retreat feels like living in a yarn shop .  We don't haul nearly as much shop stuff to New Mexico, but we do take field trips to nearby Tierra Wools and La Lana Wools, and other yarn shops in the area.

Please visit our contact page to sign up to be on our mailing list and email group so we'll be able to let you know as soon as we have information available about our retreats.
