A little bit about us…

Events Unwound was created to put together small, meaningful events for the fibre industry and provide a space to bring like-minded makers and businesses together to share, connect and collaborate.

Previous events with Events Unwound include the Country House Retreat, Bath’s first yarn show, Sip. Stitch. Shop. (May 2019) and Talking Stitches a virtual industry trade show (2021, 2022).

Founder Carmen Schmidt owns her own shop on Walcot Street in Bath, more than a shop, A Yarn Story is also a place for yarn-lovers to meet, create and feel at home.

The shelves at A Yarn Story are brimming with all the yarns, patterns and tools that Carmen loves, including her own range of luxury wool. Walcot Yarns is designed for knitters who want to create projects that are guaranteed gorgeous. She is passionate about choosing her favourite fibres and colours, as well as supporting designers and makers far and wide.
