Welcome to a new way of seeing and knitting with color! 🌈

This unique retreat is hosted by Jackie Rose of CadyJax knits and Melissa Jenkins of MJD and House of Colour - Madison West. We’ll be gathering to share a special, intentional, and sacred knitting space while discovering our best colors to enhance our knitting experience. Located in Madison, WI at Hotel Indigo on the near east side. We can’t wait!

Arrival is Sunday, July 21st with an intro color/knit talk and ‘sip & knit’ social Sunday night. We will continue with a full day of events both Monday, July 22nd AND Tuesday, July 23rd. We suggest planning your departure Wednesday, July 24th or later to enjoy the city of Madison on your own or with a friend. The official retreat schedule, with Jackie and Melissa as your guides, will conclude Tuesday evening.
