Retreats

Maker+Stitch is located in the heart of the Rocky Mountains, in Edwards, Colorado, close to the resorts of Vail and Beaver Creek.

Our active knitting retreats take us into the mountains we call home, where Alpine nature surrounds and inspires us. Each retreat is unique. It’s likely we'll be exploring the trails each morning -- hiking, snowshoeing, cross country skiing, etc. -- and then happily creating each afternoon, maybe in a meadow, or on the banks of a river, or in the coziness of a mountain cabin.
