"Nancy thought she was the only one who loved to knit but then she met some Brown Owls and together they knitted and crocheted a host of woolen treats."

After 2 successful exhibitions as part of the Adelaide Fringe Festival, Knitting Nancy is back for a 3rd time in 2013 with Knitting Nancy's Aviary.

Knitting Nancy is an ever changing group of artisans who gather their knitting and crochet skills together to create exhibitions of textile wonderment in the fair city of Adelaide, Australia.

Knitting Nancy Dives In


After the success of "Knitting Nancy", Adelaide Fringe 2010, "Nancy" is ready to "Dive In" with some old buddies and lots of new friends to create a crafty underwater world. Needles will click clack and crochet hooks will loop de loop to transform Irving Baby!'s shop window into an aquatic wonderland. What will appear in the woolen depths? ... Fish, shells, monsters of the deep...maybe a submarine?
