There are accessible bathroom facilities. \nTickets cost £20 each. On Sale from 7pm from June 1st 2026.\nOur Hugathons are a wonderful opportunity to meet fellow Woolly Huggers who share a love of crafting.They are very friendly and inclusive. It is a great time for chatting with your fellow Woolly crew and sharing ideas. If Tortie behaves we will let him come too! During the Hugathon we will attempt to get as many 6 inch squares made. In Edinburgh we are focussing on our Christmas Cwtch Project.   We will provide all SSDK\, but please remember to bring your 4mm hooks/knitting needles\, you will need them! If you have any squares already made for THIS project ONLY\, please bring them\, it may be that we can get some kits out for construction. We will also be running a rather fabulous Lucky Dip (£1 a go) and our legendary Gin Raffle (£1 a ticket)  We will also be running a DeStash table. If you have crafting items to donate to our DeStash table please do bring\, remember one person’s destash is another person’s treasure! And finally we will play our Yarn Bingo game\, you will not want to miss this! We have use of the kitchen area\, and will provide the wherewithal for making tea and coffee for a donation. Bring a packed lunch\, snacks and drinks\, we won’t judge if that is alcohol! We will be flying to Edinburgh so will be unable to take any completed treasure home\, apologies for this\, we have very limited luggage allowance     \n \nDo join us\, we’d love to meet you or see you again. And if you are worried about not knowing anyone\, let us know and we can get you seated and chatting as quick as a flash.\n  \n\nThe Christmas Cwtch palette (all SSDK yarn) \n\n\n\n\n\nChristmas Cwtch palette in Stylecraft Special DK\n\n\n\n\n\nClaret\n\n\n\nCream\n\n\n\nGrass green\n\n\n\nGreen\n\n\n\nKelly green\n\n\n\nLipstick\n\n\n\n  \n\n \n \n  \n \n \nHow to get there…\n\nLothian Region Transport buses run along nearby George IV Bridge and Lothian Road.
