Spectrum SHOP 100 – Yarn Bomb

Come and visit the wonderfully woollen and colour curated Yarn Bomb of Woolly Mandalas, celebrating Slaithwaite’s centenary parade of 8 shops on Carr Lane.

2025 marks 100 years of the Carr Lane shopping parade in Slaithwaite, with the anniversary being celebrated by a year-long heritage project.

As well as being super pretty and decorative, creating mandalas is a relaxing meditative process. Local school children and our crafting community have been helping with the creation of these mandalas in workshops, helping to knit, crochet and weave mandalas.  With designer Sandra Nesbitt supporting the project with pattern advice and information. Made into mandala screens and mobiles, they will be installed and displayed in each shop window one by one during June.

Installation 2nd-15th June, full display 16th-30th June.

This event is part of the WOVEN community programme.
