  A YEAR OF COLOUR
with Designer and Colour Enthusiast Georgia Farrell
Monthly lectures on Fridays at 3.00-4.00pm UK time throughout 2026
Step into a yearlong journey into colour with us! Each month, colour expert and designer Georgia Farrell will explore one colour, looking at its history, cultural meaning, colour theory, and how she uses it in her design work.
In January’s first session, for example, Georgia will guide you through the full spectrum of reds, from pillar box to oxblood. She will share her favourite Rowan yarn shades, suggest both classic and surprising colour pairings, and highlight Rowan designs that feature red.
The series ends with a hands-on workshop where you will create your own colour combinations, try out new ideas, and apply what you have learned. Georgia will offer practical advice on proportion, balance, and building harmonious palettes.
If you want to understand colour better, spark new ideas, and feel more confident choosing and combining shades in your knitting and beyond, this series is for you.
Live online lectures take place on Fridays, around the middle of the month, from 3.00 to 4.00pm UK time.
