REGISTRATION OPENS 7pm MAY 8 
(Event will appear sold out until then) 

You are invited to our second annual fall weekend of knitting, saunas, massage, and hearty home cooked food with Dorothy and Dappled Fern Fibers in Lutsen, MN. 

November on the North Shore means tawny cattails, striking skies, and wild wave. It's liminal time when the pace of life slows down and we settle back into ourselves. 

At this kitting retreat, shop owner Dorothy Broomall will hold the same warm, welcoming space you’ve come to know at Dappled Fern…it’s just you don’t have to go home!

We'll stay at Ski Hill Cabins and Saunas, in Lutsen, MN. These Nordic modern cabins opened earlier this year and were such a delight when we stayed there for Spring Knit! Our gentle itinerary will give you plenty of time to knit, connect, and hibernate. 

Each cabin offers a spacious living room where we cozy up to knit, full kitchen, two full bathrooms, fire circle, and private sauna. Accommodations include main-floor single room (California king bed), main floor bunk room (queen above queen bunk beds), and shared loft (two full beds in loft accessible by ships ladder). 

What we'll knit:

Whatever you want! I find this is the best way to welcome all levels of knitters and enjoy the inspiration of all the amazing things people make. As it gets closer, I'll share featured patterns to consider if you'd like to knit along with me this fall!
