Boho Floral Stitch Workshop 3rd March 2026 with Pauline Franklyn

Yarn Me Calm : 40 Geelong Rd, Portarlington Victoria

Tuesday 3 March 2026 9.30-12.30


I never tire of beautiful flowers and I am excited to share this workshop with you at Yarn Me Calm on the beautiful Bellarine  Peninsula, Victoria.

Sit down, take in the colours, peruse the yarns and samples and enjoy learning some new stitches, including French knots, detached chain stitch, Pistil stitch and Turkey work.

Using a combination of simple stitches learn how to form abstract flowers and leaves to create a lovely art piece. These techniques can be used to embellish garments and other stitched work too.

Experience the joy of stitching without a plan or pattern and a full palette of hand dyed wool yarns. Bliss!

Hand dyed yarns are so beautiful to stitch with, they are very forgiving and also provide inspiration for further colour choices in your piece. Every stitch can be a surprise as colours appear and your flowers take shape. It feels a little like magic!

Many of the more experienced stitchers who have come to my workshop can’t believe how uninhibited it is to stitch with these beautiful yarns and although they know the actual stitches, combining them in different ways is very fulfilling and often come up with the most amazing combinations.

Enjoy the pleasure and freedom of stitching while working with quality materials and the deep experience of colour and ease of wool yarn.

I will provide an assortment of beautiful hand dyed wool yarn for you to use at the workshop and provide you with your own customised collection to take home and continue on your own.
