Stitches and Hos are a motley crew of stitch enthusiasts based in Birmingham, UK.  We use yarn and needles to challenge stereotypes around the art of stitch. 

​

Stitches and Hos was started in 2006 by Sara Fowles and a group of friends. Whilst sipping in the lounge bar of their local pub one friend posed the question "Wouldn't it be funny if people were knitting in here?" 

​

Stitches and Hos produce events, projects and pieces with stitch at their heart, including our annual yarn festival Yarningham
